Hike off the turkey on Saturday

Posted

Join Jim Grajek on a hike from one end of the Fountain Hills Preserve to the other on Saturday, Nov. 30.

After working your way up Adero Canyon the hiker experiences spectacular views of the Verde Valley and neighboring mountain ranges for the next 4.5 miles.

The hike starts near the CopperWynd Resort entry on Eagle Ridge Drive. Hikers will need to arrange to have a pick up at the hike’s end at the Golden Eagle trailhead parking lot.

For those who want a little extra work out try the Western Loop Trail which adds about one mile and significant elevation change to the outing.

Hike is a total length of six to seven miles and is considered moderately difficult.

Meet at 8 a.m. at the top of Eagle Ridge by CopperWynd Resort.

Bring plenty of water, good shoes, shade hat and a snack.
