Thousands of acres of the Phoenix mountain and desert preserves offer everything from busy, arduous summit climbs to secluded, meandering valley walks. Trails open at 5 a.m. and most areas close at 7 p.m. daily.

This is the view looking east from an unnamed peak in the Phoenix Mountain Preserves showing the Squaw Peak Parkway State Route 51. The McDowell Mountains are in the distance. I remember coming out here in 1966 and there was nothing. A two lane road turned to a dirt road at Tatum Blvd. In 1983 (?) the Paradise Valley Mall went in and this area exploded. I drive south on SR51 every morning and look up at these Peaks. I never hike off-trail, but I am good at finding little trails. And finding where the coyotes bed down at night. The canine coyotes not the Mexican Coyotes. No signs indicated that this was an off-limits area - I would respect those signs.

Camelback Mountain from unnamed Peak. Camelback is one of the most popular hiking spots in Phoenix. Two Trailheads - Echo Canyon and Cholla. Parking is horrible. Most people see it from the other side, coming in to Sky Harbor Airport But this is the hiking side.

Here is a night photo from a slightly different peak
