| the hike |
Campbell Mesa, between Mt. Elden and Walnut Canyon, features smooth,
easy trails in a sparse forest, providing occasional shade and views
of the mountains through clearings.
We’ll be hiking the Campbell Mesa Loop Trail, which is too new
to be included on the Emmitt Barks map of Flagstaff Trails.
Bring your camera. See also: Forest Service description. |
