T-Bone Ridgeline/Hau’pal Trail Loop (South Mountain)

Please join us for an evening hike on the 3 mile T-Bone Ridgeline/Hau’pal Trail Loop, beginning at the South Mountain 19th Ave /Ma Ha Tuak Trailhead.

The difficult rated Hau’pal Loop has around 1,000 feet of elevation gain with nearly all being in the first 1.5 miles. A large portion of the elevation gain comes with summiting the Ma Ha Tuak Range. After the climb, we’ll follow the ridgeline which offers amazing views of the three mountain ranges of South Mountain and the valley dividing them.

Please be sure to bring a flashlight or headlamp in case needed, at least 1-2 liters of water, and snacks for energy.
