Sunset Loop Hike at South Mountain
Details
Join us for a relatively challenging sunset loop hike at South Mountain on the Beverly Canyon, Ridgeline, and Javelina Canyon trails. This hike is just under four miles in length, with around 600 feet of total elevation gain.
The first two miles of the trail involve several climbs and descents, with one big climb at about the halfway point (we will take a short break with each ascent to let everyone catch up). During final two miles we will make a slow descent down Javelina Canyon as we make our way back to the parking lot.
It is getting warm out there, so bring 1-2 liters of water, along with a headlamp, since we will likely be finishing the hike in the dark. We can get some food/drink nearby after the hike.
Meeting time: 6:30 PM
Distance: Just under 4 miles
Facilities: None
Duration: 1.5-2 hours
