Looking for 1-5m backpack in, destination fishing.

My GF and I are looking for a backpacking hike that is maybe a 1-5 miles (shorter hike = more 12oz cans), with a fishing hole as our destination. We are looking for some solitude if possible. We probably don't want any official campgrounds as that means there is a road in. I'm not even sure if there...

Re: how much water for Havasupia Canyon?

Sounds good everyone... I appreciate the feedback. I think i've decided to take a frozen lemonade down in the nalgene to start for a nice treat upon arrival.

Anyone ever take beer down there? It's always so nice to crack open a cold on upon arrival though...

Re: Question on How to Search for Hike here

Thanks for your help guys... I like the following for White Tanks: http://hikearizona.com/location_g.php?X=3 or there is the Flash Map for the Supes... I wasn't sure if those were special of something that I can find for any of the trails that you have listed by drilling down somewhere. Does that he...

Question on How to Search for Hike here

So I am only a few months going on HAZ, but absolutely love it. Question on how to use something or find a link. And I have read through the FAQs and I can't find the answer. :) So I have seen a few people post links to 'areas to hike' similar to that on the homepage for the White Tanks, and other a...

Re: What GPS unit would you recommend?

Garmin 60CSX with 10GB MicroSD... Why 10Gb? No idea, i had an extra laying around. Don't think i'll ever utilize the space as it doesnt' really support it. I use some 24k maps I found on another site. The ones here made it run too slow. I might try them again some day. Plus the load for them was cra...

Re: Organizing your GPS files (tracks and waypoints)

This has been really helpful guys! I really appreciate it. I think one of my dilemas was whether I should keep them all on there or not. I like the idea of keeping it clean. I like the idea of organizing folders by Utils, Topos, then Tracks. Within Tracks, having like HAZ Trails and My trails. I rea...

Now I've got some tracks that i'de like to keep as it's trails that i have either don...

Any Hikes around Crown King?

I am 4-wheeling up the backside of Crown King early May and would like to do a hike somewhere close to crown king. We won't be into town until probably 2-3pm, so I think I want a short hike if possible. Any ideas? I would like to backpack in and stay overnight, then come back out the next day.
