Wow, it seems like we just did this walk on 31 December 2023 – the year of 2024 seems like it was only a few days long!

On this cool, sunshiny morning (46 degrees at start), 25 intrepid Trailblazers gathered in the parking lot behind Lucille BBQ by Tempe Town Lake. We had a pre-walk Champagne toast to the outgoing year and the incoming year, greeted our hiking friends, and ate some early-morning snacks. We then proceeded on a clockwise seven-mile loop around Tempe Town Lake, and we followed that with a post-hike “Champagne” toast and some post-hike snacks. It was a perfect day for this walk, showcasing Tempe Town Lake’s best features (and some not-so-great things like a lack of sufficient toilet facilities on the south side of the lake). The following photos highlight this great group of Arizona Trailblazers enjoying a fun-filled walk with much chatting and socializing and seeing many of the wonderful scenes around the lake.
