There he is! - Mike! |
The Fit Five climbed Turtlehead Peak following the markers. Since there are a number of use trails that have appeared over the years, it is helpful to have some guidance. However, true to form, the hike never seems to be the same. That said, the trail that we followed up and down, was the easiest to negotiate that I've ever experienced on this peak. It was a fair morning and we got down with time to spare before the forecasted wind started. The hike was as beautiful as always with wide views of the escarpment and Calico Hills. No camera on my neck today but Mike and Cheryl were happy to oblige. Thanks.
Stats: 4.8 miles; 2050' gain; 3.25 hours
