If you are new to hiking or new to Tucson this is a hike for you!

As your host and leader Roger Nordby, I will cover the type of hike we'll be doing today. Although this hike falls within the Tucson Hiking MeetUp Group "Hike Rating Scale (http://files.meetup.com/372195/Hike%20Rating%20Scale.pdf)" for a "Beginner" class hike, I am giving it a Beginner + Rating for the following reasons:

Shallow stream crossings which will require rock/boulder hopping or wading.

Some steep, rocky sections of the trail.

Knowing this it would be a good idea to bring trekking poles or a walking stick and wear foot gear with sturdy, lug soles.

This hike will give you a good perspective on the canyon from floor level to a 400' to 600' perch looking down on the canyon. Nice ...

Please Bring: 2+ liters of water, food for a snack, sun protection
