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.
My biggest problem with this trail was how difficult it was to navigate after the saddle. Otherwise it was all in all incredible!
Trail conditions were great. Beautiful weather with a 6:30 start time. Short yet challenging.
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…
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.…
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…
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…
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…
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…
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!…

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.
Amazing company…amazing day….wonderful weather. Beautiful foliage. Running down 360 view peak was awesome!!
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…
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…
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…
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…
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 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.
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,…
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!
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…
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…
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…
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…
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…
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…
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!!
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–…
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…
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…

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,…

When I flew to Phoenix to do the Arizona Winter Six-Pack, I had assumed I’d be doing all the hikes solo. Little did I know…
Could I do two hikes in two days, even after like… minimal training (except skiing) and a winter of pizza and beer? Well, today —…

I can’t believe it’s been since November that I did any hiking (and that was the final hike of last year’s SoCal Six Pack!) but…
This was my first time to try a different trailhead to Wasson Peak. On prior hikes to Wasson I had done it from Kings Canyon.…
My fifth peak of the challenge and I picked the perfect day for a hike! After a week of this Spring’s first stint of sunny,…

Awesome hike. My final… and favorite… of the winter series! Loved the technical difficulties & cables… it make it all the more interesting! I’d done…
This was an afternoon hike. The weather was not too hot even though it was in the afternoon. There were a lot of hikers on…
After neglecting to read the Alltrails description and leaving the 4×4 truck at home for the sake of a smooth ride a better gas mileage…
So if your Google maps takes you to the right road high clearance is all you need. Ours must be set to adventure mode and…
Pretty loop hike to Wasson Peak. Not crowded at all. We took the wash for the first mile which had great natural waterfall formations. Did…
This is the only hike I have ever felt like quiting. It’s way too far secluded to be on this challange and the road is…
I have wanted to hike Quartz Peak since I moved to the Valley of the Sun… a long time ago… I moved here in 1993…
This one was definitely a little harder than I expected, but it was a great day! It was my first time in Saguaro National Park,…

Beautiful views of the valley . Wildflowers in bloom. Windy conditions, but beautiful sunny day. Perfect for a hike
Solo sunset hike. This hike is all too familiar. I prefer hiking it at sunset for the colors and city views as it gets dark.…
