Arizona Trailblazers Hiking Club
Spur Cross Day Hike

where	Spur Cross Conservation area
the hike	Neil Dennis will lead this trek. We have planned a pleasant hike through some beautiful scenery. Many of you have hiked this area enough to recognize the trail names such as Metate, Dragonfly and Jewel of the Creek.     We plan to reverse the usual direction so it will seem like a new hike. The pay station will be at the end of our journey instead of the beginning.     You will notice the much improved and enlarged parking area, and it is a great example of what our $3.00 fee can accomplish.
