This was my first time hiking from this trailhead.It was a little chilly but not as bad as I expected. The first mile is in the wash and rocks then you climb to the Sunrise trail at 1.6.There was one cool area with some grass and boulders that I thought was pretty neat.I went up to the peak and back to Sunrise Trail then on over to the Via Linda Trailhead.I caught a glimpse of the fountain(Fountain hills) while it was going.The drinking fountain at the Via Linda trailhead was shooting up pretty far too.I wasn't sure if it was broken or left on to keep from freezing.I like the terrain a little better on this back side.I went back the same way.I did the peak one more time on the way back.My figures show 4.4 miles each way and .5 mile twice for going up and down the peak twice.My map shows the climb from 136th at 1,298'and my climb from Via Linda at 1,146' for a 2,444 total.Great morning hike! :D
