Around Picketpost

Let’s get out early, and do the Picketpost Loop via the Arizona Trail and L.O.S.T. Trail. This is an 8.7-mile hike with 761 feet of elevation gain, and it will be warm, so bring at least 2 liters of water and anything else you need to complete the hike. If you prefer to carpool from Gold Canyon, be ready to go from the Walgreens parking lot at US 60 and Kings Ranch Road for a departure time of 5:15 a.m. The leader of this hike is not a professional, and accepts no responsibility for anyone attending who is unprepared.
