[B***] Josephine Saddle and Rogers Rock -- CANCELED

Josephine Saddle and Rogers Rock. Rating: B***. Pace: Moderate [237, 06:30 AM, $13]. The hike starts in Madera Canyon (Santa Rita Mountains) and goes up Old Baldy Trail to Josephine Saddle. We then go down the Super Trail for about 1 mile and take a turnoff for Rogers Rock and travel about 0.25 miles to the rock. The top of the provides a wonderful views of Madera Canyon and Pete Mountain to the west, and is an excellent place to eat lunch. ***The hike has sections of narrow trail with steep hillsides next to it, and the climb to, and descent from, Rogers Rock involves a short but steep trail with uneven and slippery sections. Great care is required. The return is down the Super Trail to the parking lot. The hike may be done in reverse. Hike 6.7 miles; trailhead elevation 5450 feet; net elevation change 1630 feet; accumulated gain 1839 feet; RTD 130 miles. There is a fee for parking unless you have a National Park Pass that must be displayed.
