Lyndsey L. • November 11, 2010Went up north side of mountain for geology class. Refreshing hike. Fun fact: The mountain is made up of maroon and gold rock. How awesome is that?
Thomas H. • November 17, 2013We drove up as far as we could at night, and then hiked the rest of the way up. The City of Phoenix at night, looked at from the mountain, is incredible. The lights turn into bocha dots. It's a must
Hannah • November 18, 2013A great, less crowded alternative to Piestawa Peak or Camelback Mountain. Get to the top, enjoy some trail mix and the beautiful view. Especially if there have been winter rains!
