About this event
Cordones - Basic AllTrails Instruction hike. Rating: D. Pace: Moderate [509, 09:00 AM, $0]. We meet at Mountain View and carpool to the retail center on SaddleBrooke. The purpose of this hike is to instruct hikers in the basic use of the AllTrails app. Hikers must have the app downloaded on their phone prior to the hike (either from the Apple App Store or the Google Play Store - free version is fine). The hike is in the desert area (state trust land parcel 10S-14E-22) between the northwest border of Saddlebrook unit 8A, and the ridgeline in the Cordones, along which Catalina Hills Blvd follows to the Preserve. It is a smooth, level trail that offers a good introduction to desert hiking. We pass a water trough for livestock leasing this parcel of state trust land, and cross over a wash with an old abandoned truck. There are nice views to the east of Saddlebrook and the Catalinas. Hike 3.2 miles; trailhead elevation 3300 feet; accumulated gain 328 feet. RTD 0 miles.
