- July 11, 2012 · 6:30 PM
This hike is rated Intermediate.
Come join me for one of my favorite in town night hikes from Squaw Peak Drive! These are the trails we will take clockwise, trail #304 to #1A back to #304.This hike starts out with some steep climbing in the beginning which I would rate difficult. The rest is easy to intermediate.There will be some moderate climbs thoughout. Evaluate your skills accordingly. We will go at a moderate pace with stops if needed. You're encouraged to bring snacks, camera, and must bring at least 2 liters of water per person and sturdy hiking footwear. You should also bring a flashlight and/or a headlamp because part of the hike will be in the dark. Parking is tight, so try to arrive 15min early.

Sarah, Ditto to what Mike said. Could you cue up another hike just like that one? Including cloud cover and great people? ;-)
