| no partners | | Down New Hance, up Grandview in a dayhike following http://hikearizona.com/gps=7037 route. Spectacular if strenuous, daylight is the biggest issue -- try to get past Horseshoe Mesa and onto Grandview Trail by dusk, the rest of the climb is straightforward and can be done with a good light after dusk. Trailfinding is generally not a problem, cairns help a lot, but a couple of spots require close attention. Manage your water carefully -- there is none on the entire Grandview ascend. |

Autumn Foliage Observation Isolated Mostly around creeks and bottoms of tributary canyons. |

Wildflowers Observation Isolated Very few this time of year, making the ones spotted more precious still. |
