Phoenix Mountain Preserve, Phoenix, Arizona

We once again parked at coordinates 33.5407, -112.0183, and followed trail 200. We then followed trail 202A, climbing a peak to around 1760′ elevation. So it was again about a 1.5 or 2 mile hike, with an elevation gain of about 400′.

It wasn’t much of a hike for Batya and me, but it was good practice for Shaina. Since our last hike was so successful, we presented her with her very own backpack with a water bladder, just like her parents have! She was very excited. Here she is taking a break to eat veggie straws, one of her favorite activities.

It was a windy day, and clearly Shaina could have used a headband or scrunchie to keep the hair out of her face. Oh, well.

I noted a strange indentation in one of the rock walls. Is there a geologist available to explain this?
