Garden Canyon

HIKE IN GARDEN CANYON
Join the Muleteam this Saturday for a hike on Fort Huachuca in the Huachuca Mountains starting in Garden Canyon and going up to the beginning of Sawmill Canyon where it will end. We will not be going to the Crest trail as we have done in the past. This is a higher elevation hike. It is uphill on a primitive road with pine woods and creek scenery. The hike will be about 6 miles roundtrip. Bring water and lunch. Back mid-afternoon. Meet Dec 7 at 9am by the Old Bisbee courthouse fountain to carpool. Free, but gas donation is appreciated. Fort Huachuca does require an Access Badge for entry (see below). For more details contact John at 319-325-3605 or johnbroz1944@yahoo.com.

Please get your Access Badge before the day of the hike. Badges are issued free at the Visitor Control Center, which is located adjacent to the Van Deman or East Gate. You must have a driver's license, passport, or military ID to obtain the Badge. Badges are good for 30 days for visitors and one year for locals. The Control Center is open 24/7.

BACKTRACK - Mule Ridge
The Bisbee hills were resplendent with sunshine and rivulets with waterfalls for eight hikers and three dogs. Despite my fears that we would be soaked from wet grass and water on the trail, we did not find wet grass or much water on the trail. We finished on a high note as we made our way along a flowing stream in the canyon portion of Locklin. -John B.
