This month's adventure will be the Mount Bigelow Trail, a moderate out-and-back hike beginning at the trailhead across from Camp Lawton. While I only remembered this trail as the final portion of our old Butterfly hike, it certainly deserves a visit of its own. The hike covers approximately 2 miles with 587 feet of elevation gain. As with all hikes in the Santa Catalina Mountains, you can expect the refreshing scent of pine, cooler temperatures, and sweeping views of Tucson from the summit of Mount Bigelow.
Meet-up and Departure:
We will meet at LeBuzz (Catalina Highway and Tanque Verde) at 6:30 AM, with departure at 6:45 AM. We anticipate starting the hike around 8:00 AM.

After the hike, we’ll head over to Beyond Bread at the Mount Lemmon Lodge for a well-earned caffeinated beverage and snack. (As always, fudge from the General Store will be available for individual purchase.) 😁
Hike on, and see you on the trails!
