The trail descends into a canyon where clear turquoise water\, waterfalls\, natural pools\, and lush greenery create a rare desert oasis. \nImportant Reality: The hike down is easier and downhill.

SUMMARY:Baboquivari Peak
DESCRIPTION:Join us for a hike up southern Arizona’s most distinctive peak pronounced “bah-boh-kwa-VEE-ree“. Sticking up 1000 feet or more above the surrounding mountains\, with its characteristic pyramid-shaped peak\, it beckons the curious. On a clear day\, it can be seen from over 100 miles away. \nThis mountain is a sacred place to the Tohono Oʼodham people so please treat this sacred place with a little extra respect. The reservation is generous enough to let people climb it for a permit fee of $10/person. \nBaboquivari is a challenging 9.5 mile 4\,100ft climb with class 3 scrambling towards the top. To reach the very top the last 100ft is proper rope climbing rated 5.4. However we likely won’t be able to do this as we don’t have the proper gear or experience. However the end of the trail is where most people turn around anyways. Climbing experience is NOT required for this trip! \nRead more about this <— at the link! \n  \nItinerary: \nSaturday 28th: Meet at ASU Performing arts building in the Trader Joe’s parking lot at 3pm then drive down to Baboquivari. The res requires a $3 fee to camp \nSunday 29th: Hike Baboquivari and drive back to Tempe \nACCESS SIGNUP SHEET
