Camped at the top. If you want peaceful, beautiful views (360 degree no less) this will absolutely blow you away at night.

We decided to go out the week prior to the City of Phoenix' annual event because we wanted to include actual SUMMITS.
Completed our 7 summits in 10:40 (includes driving, food, and hiking time).
Below is our order (hiking times are TH to TH)
1. South Mountain-Holbert (Mineral Road Lot to Dobbins Lookout and back): 1:15
2. Camelback-Cholla: 1:15
3. Squaw Peak: 1:10
4. Shaw Butte: 1:10
5. North Mountain: :45
6. Lookout Mountain: :35
7. Shadow Mountain: :35
Total Hiking Time: 6:45
What a BLAST! Exhasting and hot (an unbelievable 94 degrees at the end of October) but very rewarding. Will definitely be an annual event.
