Before you go
Conditions, access, and honest warnings.
- The payoff is the view of Weavers Needle from the saddle, one of the great views in Arizona.
- Rocky and uneven nearly the whole way. Ankle support matters more than usual here.
- Six to seven miles of dirt road to reach the trailhead, then a lot that fills before dawn in winter.
