Guthrie Mountain. Rating: B. Pace: Moderate [213, 8:00 AM, $10]. The hike starts at the General Hitchcock Campground off Catalina Highway and proceeds up the Green Mountain Trail to the Bear Saddle at the head of Bear Canyon. At the Saddle, we will take the trail southeast to Guthrie Mountain and return to the trailhead. Parking is usually available in the campground overflow parking lot. The Saddle and the trail along the ridge top from the Saddle to Guthrie Mountain afford great views of the Catalinas and the San Pedro Valley. *NOTE: There is a large rock face (0.25 mile/200 feet) that we need to climb to reach the peak. If you are not comfortable with using hands and feet to do a short climb, you can wait at the saddle.* Hike 6.2 miles; trailhead elevation 6000 feet; net elevation change 1200 feet; accumulated gain 1959 feet; RTD 104 miles.
