Meet at 7:00 am at the Lone Star Cafe 7216 S Hwy 92 -- it is located near the intersection of Hwy 92 and Hereford Rd. We will meet in the dirt lot just outside the Cafe. If you want breakfast at the cafe, you can arrive earlier - it opens at 6:00 am.
There will be a sign-in sheet and we will discuss the plan. After that we will drive (can carpool if you like) to the top of Carr Canyon - the Comfort Spring Trail Head. The hike in is just under 4 miles to the Saddle.
Updates:
- Trash Bags will be hauled out by horse at a later date - Great news for our backs!
- We will need to carry bags a half mile down to the spring - staging area for horses.
- Weather forecast looks great - bring some sunscreen it is exposed at the saddle.
Not everyone has to haul bags to Bear Spring so if you have a bad back or other concerns you can load the bags and others will hike them in to the spring. I am going to bring rope and a larger pack to try tying bags to the pack for the half-mile hike but you can also sling two tied bags over your shoulder if you prefer - I will have plenty of rope and duct tape!
