HIKE LOWER HUNTER CANYON LOOP
Join
the Mule Team this Saturday, April 11th for a relatively easy four-mile
hike with rolling hills and a mix of sun and shade in Hunter Canyon in
the Huachucas. We will begin on East Hunter Canyon Road – just off route
92 in Hereford. We will hike a loop around lower Hunter Canyon
following trails, washes and mountain biking trails. If you did this
hike last year, we will be doing a different loop so it will be fresh
and new!
We
will stop for lunch in a wash with a great view. There will be scenic
views of the Huachucas, the Mules and the vast San Pedro Valley. Bring
water, snacks & lunch. Dogs on leash are OK. Back early afternoon.
Meet April 11th at 9am at the Old Bisbee courthouse fountain to carpool
and drive the 40 minutes to the Hunter Canyon Parking lot. For any questions, contact Jim at 802-355-4591 or jim.poulin@yahoo.com.
Alternatively,
hikers may meet us at about 9:45am at the Hunter Canyon parking lot.
Turn west off route 92 on East Hunter Canyon Road – there is no road
sign, but Google Maps shows the road. It is a dirt road right where the
four lanes on 92 drops to two lanes. Cross the cattle grate and park on
the left.
BACKTRACK - Art Stairs
Perfect weather for 22 people to explore Old Bisbee stairs. A small group from Tucson joined us, and everyone seemed to really enjoy the morning of eclectic art and unexpected paths. With an unpredictable route the group had to stick together so nobody would miss a turn, so sometimes we had to wait on our yakking laggers. A few dropped out along the way, but most made it to Castle Rock for a snack and a view before heading back. Lots of photos, mostly posted by the Tucson people at the link below... - Larry
