This hike is rated INTERMEDIATE. This is a joint event with the Phoenix (2-hour) Beginner Hikers.
Come out for a Sunday morning hike at Dreamy Draw! We'll do part of the #100 trail then loop around the 1A and the VOAZ loop which is very scenic. This is the "4 bench" hike since we pass 4 benches along the way. There is quite a bit of climbing but we'll take it at a moderate pace and take breaks along the way. Many of the trails are quite rocky (just like all these mountain ranges around here) so you're encouraged to have sturdy hiking footwear. Bring snacks and a camera, too.

For my first hike, it couldn't be better. Wanted to start with an intermediate trail to gauge the type of challenge i was facing. It was about what I thought in those terms. The group was great
