|
|
Okay. Here's the deal for tomorrow. It looks as though the original hike plan has dwindled in "EPIC" proportions. (thanks a lot Colin...)
I suggest we cut this hike down to about a 7 mile loop (we can do the 15 later when most everyone can make it) from Pima trailhead out National trail through Hidden Valley and Fat Man's Pass. We can then loop back around to Mormon's trail and back to Pima.
This hike should be a leisurely total of ~5 hours depending on stops etc. This will allow for a later start time of like 9 a.m. (I'm sure party goers will appreciate that). I propose a meet time at Pima of 8:30 a.m.
I'm also adding that we can all meet afterwards for a late lunch thing along the same lines as the original hike. Aunt Chilada's?
What does everyone think of them apples??
Can I get a show of "hands"? Any other suggestions?
Think of it this way, this can now be a sweetheart, spouse, family, and animals hike. I kind of like that idea for a 1/1 hike. |

Sorry but I'm going to bail out. Still this huge cloud hanging over S.M. and looks like more is on the way coming from the S.W.

Fun hike everyone. That little ridgeline gets the blood pumping for sure. I've hiked the S.M. area a bunch of times before, but saw it in quite a different light today.
Great to be with a few of the AZH crew again. Nice way to "ring in" the New Year.
See y'all on the 10th, if not before.
