[A***] Samaniego Ridge from Mt Lemmon

About this event

Mt. Lemmon to Samaniego Ridge. Rating: A***. Pace: Fast/Moderate/Slow [288, 05:00 AM, $13]. Starting from the top of Mt. Lemmon, we take the Mt. Lemmon Trail and Samaniego Ridge Trail.  We will move at a fast pace while the trail is good. The last 3 miles is sometimes very brushy and difficult to follow, expect a slow pace. We will bushwhack up to Samaniego Peak. This  bushwhack adds significant difficulty to the hike because of the lack of a trail, dense brush to be negotiated, and the boulder scrambling involved. Defensive clothing and gloves are required, suggested to bring clippers. Hike 13 miles; trailhead elevation 9100 feet; net elevation change 2000 feet; accumulated gain 3500 feet; RTD 131 miles.
