I arrived around 7:45am on Sunday morning and there was plenty of parking.

Before heading to the trailhead, I stopped at the visitor center to to pay the $7 fee and use the restrooms.  Very nice rangers and the restrooms were very clean.

The Hunter trail and the signs are well maintained.  In several areas, the cables were perfectly placed and appreciated.

Along the trail, the hikers were friendly and offered encouragement and tips!

At a few points closer to the peak, there were very difficult obstacles with the cables (vertical climbs), but all the hikers took it slow and helped one another.

At the peak, the views are absolutely breathtaking.

I met several other hikers at the peak and we all shared our love of this trail!

The saguaro cacti are a sight to see along the trail as well!

I give this hike an A+!!!
