First Water Trail

Over Thanksgiving weekend we went hiking in the Superstitions. It also was Johanna's birthday and we celebrated by trekking out on a great hike on the north side of the Superstition wilderness. Fascinating history and legend of the Lost Dutchman's Gold mine.

In the background is Weaver's Needle . According to one story the treasure is said to be located on the north side... A wonderful read and hikers guide is "Hiker's Guide to the Superstition Wilderness" by Jack Carlson and Elizabeth Stewart....


The hiking crew: Cole, Johanna, Vicky and Pete
