April Jane jumping on the summit of 4 Peaks.
Bob following in her footsteps! :-) Nice leap of faith u 2!
April & Michael pointing to the top of 4 Peaks. This was the easy section.
And this was the hard section. Rocky & steep!
The hike was 7 miles round trip. View of Roosevelt Lake to the northeast.
And since the trail began at 5700 feet we walked in cool temps among the pine trees & greener vegetation.
We reached the top of Brown's Peak @ 7657' (the same elevation as Flagstaff). Brown's Peak is the 1st and the highest of the 4 Peaks Mountain which is always visible from Phoenix if you look east.
Peaks 2, 3 & 4 are in a row behind April & I.
Hours on the trail = time to talk & laugh. Enjoyed getting to know Michael better. Like April, he just graduated from college & has a busy summer of work ahead. Glad we could do this adventure with them!
Funny enough...we did this adventure with Mike & Abbie two years ago. We tried to duplicate the pose...pretty close! We should have switched sides with Michael & April. :-/
A couple more goofy shots..."Don't let me fall!"
April Jane tree pose. ;-)
Another great day of hiking....again "love" the jump shots....so nice you had a day to enjoy April and Michael's company!
ReplyDeleteThanks, Karen! :-) Glad we could get this hike in before Phoenix heated up too much!
