Started out at 9a and finished at 1p, it was already very warm, a tough terrain, rocky, shears and steep. As most have said, tough…
My brother and I hit the trail at 08:57, and we reached the summit at 12:09. It was in the mid 70°s when we started-off,…
Much tougher hike then it looks. Elevates fast. Trail gets a lil difficult to follow at times, GPS app recommended to stay the course. Flies…
This hike revealed my need for additional conditioning. It was nice to meet fellow Six-Pack of Peaks AZ hikers on the trail. One person I…
Listed as the first hike of the Summer Six-Pack of Peaks challenge, Bear Mountain has to be pretty easy right?? For my myself, my boyfriend,…
Very cool hike; beautiful views! Beware of false peaks and hike was more difficult than we anticipated. Finished in 3.5 hours.
An easy trail to hike on made it possible to push a pace. A lot of sun exposure due to fire years ago, bugs at…
Great hike with amazing views on the way to the top. I only wish I’d completed this hike earlier in May to beat the heat.
I had the trail to myself! I got there shortly after 7, and busted this trail out in just over 3 hours total!! It was…
This hike was a perfect way to spend a Friday. We used the location as an excuse to stay in Jerome because it was only…
Early start, 6:30am. Took me 2:20 to summit……not a quick hiker but enjoyed the sights! Nice cool morning and mostly shade into the first canyon.…
It was a great day for reflection. I couldn’t decide on Sedona lookout or North Canyon, so I did both for a total of 12.1…
Great hike, definitely a little steeper but it is a shame the the top is so covered in cell towers. Flowers in boom created a…
Chilly start at 6am but warmed up quick by 8 am. This is a tough hike! I thought about taking my dogs but was glad…
Sun was out, lots of wind and more people than I expected down at the lower loop. Views were ok but definitely a challenge.
Beautiful hike. The temps were still in the 40’s around 7a and there were small patches of snow at the top. Very windy and chilly…
This was a beautiful, well marked trail that definitely earns it’s hard rating! I had read about the false summits and thought I was prepared…
Gorgeous spring day in Arizona! A slight breeze and clear skies. A bit if a rock climb but the trail was marked with white arrows!
This is a challenging hike, but it was beautiful weather for it. It was pretty windy and that was a relief as I finished the…
Packed up with 40lb of training weight for JMT segment plans later this year. It was hard with the weight but glad I did it…
A little windy, but great weather. Saving gas and time did this right after Bear Mnt. That made it a bit harder. Next time I…
Easy to follow with white markers. Great cardio and the miles felt longer than 5 miles. High 80s but very minimal shade so we’re grateful …
The trail is pretty easy to navigate with the prominent white paint markers. We made it a day trip from Phoenix so the 80 degree…
The hike was a bit longer than we expected coming into it, but it only gave us more views to appreciate. We started mid-morning, so…
Early Mother’s Day Accomplishment for me. It was a day I won’t forget that quick. Highest Peak in Arizona – DONE:) Ice & hard packed…
This hike was a challenge for me, the trail is well maintained and easy to follow with the markers along the trail. It is a…
Beautiful hike and interesting to see the changes in rocks as I hiked. Not a very difficult trail. Lots of spring flowers blooming. I got…
Beautiful spring flowers, windy day, and great views to sit and eat lunch at the top.
Very steep with large step ups and step downs. Beautiful views along the entire route.
The weather was perfect!!! The trail has seen some overgrowth since I hiked it last (maybe 4-5 years ago). There were a lot of fallen…
The perfect amount of challenge, steep but manageable. We started early to beat the heat and it took 3 hours and 15 minutes with a…
Fun and challenging hike. It is steep but not too long. Lots of stairs/step-ups. The views are incredible. As it warms up an early start…
There were some fallen trees near the end, and also some small patches of snow (but totally crossable!). Super windy at the top!
Beautiful trail! Went early enough for shade on way up. Not too crowded but got busier on way down.
This website sucks!!! I’ve spent 5 different times trying to log my hike!!!! Fix this website!!!
Started early and finished early before.the heat. A challenging and rewarding hike. Love being surrounded by hardworking humans and pets enjoying the day.
This was by far my favorite hike to date. Saw every color of wild flowers. I had the trail to myself for most of it.…
Trail conditions were great. Beautiful weather with a 6:30 start time. Short yet challenging.
My biggest problem with this trail was how difficult it was to navigate after the saddle. Otherwise it was all in all incredible!
Saw large and small lizards. Fed panamint chipmunks grapes and banana. People were friendly. Did a lot more scrambling since I made my way off…
Saved Flatiron for last… My first time hiking this one and, while it was a beast, the views were absolutely worth it.
Flatiron is always a fun adventure! It was super windy up top and on the way down I chatted with so many people who were…
This was the hardest one for me to find and get too. I am not from Arizona and this drive was somewhat stressful for me.…
The biggest scramble of all 6! Started early morning -7am and most of the ascend was in a shade with nice breeze coming through. The…
Decided to hike the alternative hike as an extra. So this the 7th hike. Saw changes like actual restroom. Still really crowded. Plenty of hikers…
Loved Fremont Saddle! The toughest part is towards the end when you hit the switchbacks and gain the most altitude. So worth it when you…
Got up at 3:15 AM (alarm was set for 4….) to hit challenge hike #6 in relatively cool weather and to drive up from Tucson…
Happy Easter! Picacho Peak…cables galore…climbing everywhere like spider man. lol. I would have to say this was a fun one…challenging but fun! One of the…
The road in to the trailhead was a little bit of an adventure in itself. Happy that my Bronco managed the rough terrain without incident!…
Well, we did it! We finished number 6 today and it was a doozy! I almost gave up a couple of times but somehow found…
Great way to finish off my 6PoP – this was a beautiful, challenging hike and really made me appreciate the variety of all the peaks…
Hard hike but so glad to have done it. Met up with a small group who let us join them. We had good conversation and…
Amazing company…amazing day….wonderful weather. Beautiful foliage. Running down 360 view peak was awesome!!
Since I’m from Tucson I stayed the night in Mesa to get a start at 6:30 AM. Was gunning for 6 AM when the park…
Such a beautiful national park, rewarding 360 degree views! Lizards were very active and everywhere; that was fun to see.
It was a great day to bound up and down the rocks of this trail with people.from all over the world.
Wildflowers everywhere! Excellent, gorgeous hike to Fremont Saddle, then to a lookout point, and back down the Cave Trail to form a loop to the…
So, 4 of 6 is in the books and I’m pretty darn happy that this hike is in the rearview mirror. As one can probably…
I had a nice early hike up to Picacho Peak trying to beat the heat and crowds. Unfortunately my All Trails app stopped when I…
Today’s hike was one of those good ones that stick in your head. I started at 0800-ish and the weather was perfect. The parking lot…
This was an amazing hike; however, the road getting there started the real adventure. Couldn’t have completed this in my front-wheel drive vehicle. Lots…
This was my first hike in the AZ winter Series. I’m staying/basing out the North Phoenix area so I wanted to get both Piestewa and…
This was hike number 2 for the day after completing Camel back Mountain earlier in the morning. The trail is well done but you will…
Always fun on the cables of Picacho Peak. On the way down I ran into a rattlesnake that made sure to let me know I…
This was fun, but I did Picacho and Wasson in the same day. My legs were pretty tired. I’d like to do it again without…
This was a very difficult hike to even get to and from the trailhead. I came from North Scottsdale so went through Maricopa. I…
Last hour or two of hike was during night. I ironically enjoyed the the dune-buggying in and out of the trailhead entrance.
Not crowded, plenty of parking at 5:30PM. No snakes, which was great! Cool breeze. Watching the sunset as I was hiking back down was beautiful!
Having only a car for transportation this year, I couldn’t do Quartz Mountain, so I had to settle with Camelback mountain instead. For some reason,…
Tha last hike for the winter challenge is complete! This is a challenging hike with a great reward at the end with the views.
Amazing winter hike, however it has gotten hot today so I had wished that I started early. Kings Canyon trail is rocky, but well maintained,…
Do not underestimate this hike! The shortness of it led me to think it wouldn’t be too bad but it was a beast from start…
Great morning for a hike. Interesting trail with a combination of natural and man made features for the path. It has a big elevation change…
Wasson Peak is always a good, solid hike with beautiful views of the Sonoran desert, Tucson, and Saguaro National Park. I’ve seen a group of…
This was my 1st time at Picacho and it was amazing. Trail was easy to follow, especially being alone for it. I would recommend bringing…
This was a second attempt to get to the summit. Earlier this week I attempted to summit but due to time constraints I turned back…
Hard but rewarding hike. Fairly populated trail, but I got a late start on a Saturday, so most traffic was headed down. 10/10 would hike…
Beautiful and quiet area – by 8:45 when we got to the parking lot after a 45-minute drive on the sandy dirt road, the Lott…
Hike 5 of 6 hot as heck! Glad to get this one under our belts…the sparkle all over the ground was beautiful though!!
Did the loop hike staring at King Canyon to Wasson Peak, then down the Hugh Norris trail. Excellent views throughout, wildflowers, and interesting geology. Highly…
Completed Wasson and Picacho in one day. An enjoyable climb. Not long at all, but 1,800 AEG. Temps peaked at around 88 by the time…
It was quite hot, but then again I didn’t start until around 10 am. I went through my Camelback and 32oz Yeti. The flowers were…
I ventured out on a Friday early morning to tackle this, my final summit, solo. I emphasize that because I wouldn’t recommend it. Not on…
Choose the right unless you want an adventure. I started at 6:30am. The first part of the climb is pretty easy. Then you get to…
Definitely deserve it’s hard rating from All Trails. The lower trail is very rocky and the upper trail requires some scrambling. Very little traffic on…
I would recommend a high clearance vehicle or you will have to drive very slowly. The hike is very steep almost the whole way up–…
Started the hike with fairly overcast skies. Nice breezes near the top. Quite busy, but not surprising for this trail on a Sunday morning in…
I started at 6:30 and finished around noon. I am not a fast hiker, I like to enjoy the hike as long as possible. I…
My human had a flare up on an old strain so we had postponed for 3 wks. But we did it. Tough but so glad…
Good hike, got to the trailhead before sunrise on a Saturday, parking lot almost full already. Lots of people, great views.
Yikes. This one was as difficult coming down as it was going up. We started at sunrise and the weather was beautiful, but by the…
Great hike, just a little warm for this time of year. Snakes are starting to come and we saw a couple medium sized rattlesnake. But,…
Loved loved this one!!! Didn’t know how I would do with the cables but those were my favorite sections. Steep from step #1…
This is the hike I was most nervous about, and ended up being a rare hike where I preferred the uphill to the downhill. There…
This hike was a difficult yet beautiful one. The wildflowers were out. There were several hikers but in different small groups and there were times…
Tough challenge for the last peak. Felt similar to Quartz Peak in difficulty. Was a hot AZ day low 90’s but some cloud cover .…
Spectacular hike!!! Be ready for an all day adventure. The desert was exploding with color, best bloom I have seen in years. The hike turns…
