Season 25

2024-2025 MULETEAM SEASON NEEDS HIKE LEADERS

The Muleteam is our local Bisbee hiking group that has been having Saturday hikes from late October to early May every year since 2000. It’s an informal group with no organization, meetings or dues. Anyone is welcome to show up at the County Court House fountain any Saturday at 9am (with some early departures). We have a core group of diverse hikers but are happy to have short-term visitors and seasonal renters. Many great friendships have been made by meeting people with similar interest in hiking and exploring the beautiful lands of Southern Cochise County. 

Muleteam hikes are not races. There is always a range of endurance and styles among our hikers, but we go at a reasonable pace, make sure not to let anyone fall too far behind, take frequent breaks and sit together for a long lunch break. Our hikes are a very wide range of locations, distance from Old Bisbee, difficulty, and environment. Our hikes average 3-7 miles, and there is a very wide range of difficulty, from casual river walks to going to the summit of Miller Peak, at 9,000 feet the highest mountain in the Huachucas. We each only go on hikes that make sense to us individually. Every week is different, and it’s fun when new people show up.

There is advance notice of every hike, with a detailed description at muleteam.blogspot.com (where you can subscribe to the weekly email). The blogspot has the calendar for all hiking Saturdays between October 26, 2024 to mid-May 2025, description of upcoming hikes and past hikes (with photos), plus ongoing notices.

WE NEED HIKE LEADERS NOW TO VOLUNTEER 

WELL IN ADVANCE FOR EVERY SATURDAY OF THE SEASON. 

You don’t have to be a hard-core hiker to lead one (or more) of these hikes.
