The mountains of PHX looked like islands in the low clouds this morning. A great Christmas present for all the hikers.

First time hiking in the McDowells. Loved it. Will definitely hike this trail again. The size of the saguaros was amazing.

Took the Cub Scouts to the new Peoria trail - East Wing Mountain. Located in the Sonoran Mountain Ranch. A great trail for those of us in the NW Valley. Starts out in the subdivision, but quickly goes up hill. Turn right at the fork to get to the summit. You can take an alternate trail down and meet up at the main trail.

I will definately be doing this trail more often.

A wonderfully steep hike right in Carefree. This is a big pile of shale. Hike up the Jeep road to the trailhead on the opposite side of the water tank.

Hotter than I expected. Amazing trail that lets you get away from Phoenix without leaving Phoenix.

Did this with the family - so I won't log the time (yikes are my kids slow!)

This is a great hike to see the pines, some Indian ruins, and of course, the Grand Canyon.

Not the best day to top Maricopa County - hot and humid. But I did it! Saw Woodstock too.

Climbed to the top of Maricopa County. Got off trail on Amethyst - keep your eyes open!

There could have been a further view, but it rained the night before and it was very humid and hot. Yikes!

Spent the day swimming, hiking, and having fun! One of the best places in AZ - cool water made the heat tolerable.

Came out of the canyon via the Bright Angel after descending the South Kaibab. A hot one - some clouds helped the ascent.

Flew down the South Kaibab Trail on the way to Phantom Ranch for lunch. 80 degrees at Cedar Ridge at 8AM! A hot one indeed.

Took the Six Shooter to the top of Pinal Peak. Then went back via the Telephone Trail.

Great day. The old mining camp makes for a great place to eat lunch.

A great alternative to traveling back on the Six Shooter trail. This trail is less traveled. Beware of the sharp left - we missed it and went down the drainage scambling down the side of the mountain!
