Good morning friends,I just wanted to follow up for this Saturday, 6/15 hike and meet times now that we can see what the weather forecast looks like. Saturday is going to be a sunny, clear day so projected start time of 8:30AM still looks good with starting temperatures in the mid 60's. I have updated the departure time from LeBuzz to help us secure parking at the Marshall Gulch trailhead before what I am sure will be a large volume of people beating the heat in Tucson. End time should still be around 11AM with temperatures in the mid 70's so lunch/beverage at the Sawmill will be likely.
See you on the trails!
Marshall Gulch & Lower Aspen Loop - 7:15AM departure for 8:30 AM start
We will meet at LeBuzz located at Tanque Verde & Catalina Highway. This is a moderate hike covering just under 4 miles with 831 feet of vertical with hiking time of approximately 2.5 hours. As always, a stop for a bite/beverage at one of the local establishments is likely. Thanks Bruce Richardson.
This beautiful hike offers outdoor enthusiasts a memorable experience in the Pusch Ridge Wilderness. Hike through towering pine trees and groves of aspen trees in a lovely forested area. The trail meanders uphill, creating a gradual ascent of the ridge. The forest opens up various times along the way to reveal picturesque views of the surrounding mountains. |
