November 3, 2017 First Hike Changed to Casa Grande Mountain - See Post

Idaho Pass To Blue Ridge
Friday, Nov.3rd, the first hike of the year, Idaho Pass to Blue Ridge! Not! We gathered at our normal spot by the main mailboxes, all five of us, Skip, Connie, Sharon, Marilyn, and myself.
With such a feeble showing we decided to forego the trip up to Phoenix and head south for Casa Grande Mountain and explore some of the new trails that had been built over the summer. Unlike most Friday’s our drive to the trailhead was much shorter.

In no time we were following Skip out from the Peart Road Trailhead, combining parts of the Spine Trail, Ridge Trail, & Ridge Trail we hiked the east side of the mountain for just over five miles before returning to the truck, and back to Palm Creek around 12:30.
