Reschedule Cochise Stronghold/camp& hike

Cochise Stronghold East is located 72 Miles from Tucson in the Dragoon Mountains. We will be camping at 5,000 feet in Oak woodlands . By this date weather may be a bit warm in the day and at least comfortably cool at night. No water at the campground so you will need to bring your own.
From Tucson take 10 East at US 191 go South to Sunsites, AZ. Ironwood Road will take you West and into the Forest. The road will turn into FR 84 at the Forest Boundary. Continue until you get to the Campground. The road is bumpy and in rainy weather has aprox 5 stream crossings, so don't bring the Corvette.

We will meet Saturday afternoon for those who want to camp. Sunday, hike departs by 9 AM . We will do the Cochise Trail. 4 miles each way, aprox. 1,000 elevation gain. The trail is moderately challenging, but I do like to go off trail on the way back up a drainage to a nice waterfall.
I know we like to eat so bring a Potluck item. Grills are available.
$10 a day camp fee per campsite.
