Introduction

I am a newly retired teacher currently keeping busy with lots of arts-related volunteer work. I have never hiked with a "hiking group" before; but I do hike with friends and familiy here, in the White Mountains, and in the SF Bay Area.

We like to make hiking a social activity. Who might you bring with you on your next hike to share the fun?

I heard about this hike from a friend named Ann who volunteers with me at the Musical Instrument Museum.

What's your favorite trail/place to hike?

I don't really have a favorite; but in the valley I've hiked the Go John Trail, Pinnacle Peak, the Gateway Loop, some trails in Spur Cross, the Peralta Trail in the Superstitions, some trails in the Phoenix Mountain Preserve, and Camelback Mountain.

Would you be willing to lead a hike?

No, I am not that skilled.

Do you have a particular hiking goal?

I like to get out and enjoy nature, company, and exercising. I would also like to meet people involved in trail maintenance (in cool climate months and in nearby areas that don't require camping) because I am interested in volunteering for this activity and have been unable to find information.

Does your profile picture clearly show your face as required by our group policies? (I.e. it's not your dog, your children, a cartoon, a nature scene, a mask, the back of your head, random group shots, and especially not a blurry tiny photo, etc.)

Yes

  • Judy, You will just need to drive north on Pima until you get to E Rio Verde Dr. Go east until the road comes to a "T" at Ft. McDowell Rd and take a left. You will see a right turn not long after... take that and you will be entering the Box Bar parking area. It's pretty easy, but if you get turned around call my cell, which I will provide in an email this week.

  • Hi Judy, I look forward to meeting you. Although we will be working first, I generally have a post-hiking or camping option with each project to reward our efforts. : ) Thanks for joining!
