Ellevated Hike - Prescott Circle Trail

Prescott Circle Trail - 55 miles, 6292 ft gain - 4 days in a row - choose what days you hike.

9am start, except 8am on Tuesday, this will be at a backpacking pace so we'll take multiple breaks, stop for lunch, and generally be slower than typical Ellevated hikes since we'll be carrying weight. Easy terrain pace will be close to 3mph, more like 2.5 on challenging terrain.

Saturday 4/25 14 miles 1220 ft gain - White Spar to Turley Trailhead

Directions to meeting spot: White Spar Hiking parking lot next to White Spar campground (enter "Bean Peaks Gravity Trails into Google Maps - left off White Spar, immediate right, then stay LEFT & park near the bathrooms up the hill).

Sunday 4/26 11.8 miles 1100 ft gain
Turley Trailhead to Watson Lake
Directions to meeting spot: Enter Turley Trailhead into Google Maps.

Monday 4/27 - 14.6 1160 ft gain - Watson Lake to Iron Springs Trailhead
Meeting spot: we'll start at Watson Lake, but can coordinate rides so no one has to pay the parking fee just to leave their car there.

Tuesday 4/28 - Iron Springs Trailhead to White Spar - 16.7 miles, 1900 ft gain, includes Wolverton & Quartz Mtns

Meeting place: Enter "Iron Springs Trailhead" into Google Maps. On Iron Springs Rd, a couple miles past the intersection with Gail Gardner, on the left.

We potentially have one spot left if you want to do this as a backpack. These are all one way hikes so we will need to coordinate on shuttling cars. Please comment on which days you will be hiking and I will reach out with carpooling when we get closer.
