About this event

The weather has finally started to cooperate, so I'd like to start having more hiking events. One of my favorite hikes is the Brown Road Hill in East Mesa near Brown Rd and Loop 202. It is local, it is short, and it offers gorgeous panoramic views of the area.

The hike itself is about half a mile up and half a mile back down. However it is fairly steep and in some places very rocky or sandy. The difficulty comes from the steepness and uneven footing, not the endurance required. Even still, I have brought plenty of children and non-hikers to this trail and even complete novices have had no difficulty completing it. You can find more details on AllTrails here: https://www.alltrails.com/trail/us/arizona/brown-road-hill

Lets plan to meet at about 6:15 AM so that we can begin promptly by 6:25. This gives us plenty of time to move at an easy pace and still have time at the top before the 6:55 sunrise.

Please bring: -A small flashlight or headlamp if you want it -Some water if you need it. (I will probably bring coffee lol) -Your dog. I see dogs there all the time. -Your kids (or nieces/nephews/siblings/etc) as guests if they are at least 12

Looking forward to seeing you out there!
