I don't hike South Mountain often but it is the only place left that I have not hiked and there are a lot of new hikes.

Julio and I decided to do a quick hike after work before the sun went down.  This was a great option.  Gave him good photo shots and me a new hike.

The summit road is closed because the monsoons washed it out again!  So you are limited to get to the top. Hike up is the only way. :)

We went up the Kiwanis trail to the road. Then crossed the road and hiked to the National Trail.  It was a very pretty hike. Going to the little house adds another 1/2 mile to this hike.  It was a clear beautiful day. This trail has hieroglyphics and pueblo structures.

Enjoy the pictures.
