Camelback Mountain

Although the name mountain might be debated, I went on a hike of Camelback Mountain in Phoenix on Saturday morning with some friends. It's a peak that rises about 1,300 ft above the valley in the middle of the city. The hike to the top is steep, so the trail is considered difficult or strenuous although it's only about 1.5 miles. We went up the cholla trail which is the longer, but less steep of the two trails. It was a beautiful day to be out hiking, I don't think we could have asked for better weather. The view from the top of the mountain are pretty amazing. It's a cool view of the city to see.
