Our Halloween hike, Huckaby Trail...

Halloween Hike. :)

I decided to go out during the day for a hike on Halloween. Interesting people came out on this hike. Like...people who seem to come out only at night. Bahaha. I know it's rude, but it was strange to see. This hike was about 1.2 miles round trip at most. It definitely is not an easy hike. It's a moderate to difficult hike for sure! Its a downhill/uphill hike. No smooth turf whatsoever. It hurt my feet so I can only imagine what Simon's feet were like. Poor guy. His boots came in, but silly me, I forgot them! He went swimming down in Oak Creek and loved every minute of it. :) As we hiked back up he was starting to slow down. Super tired boy. 


This place is easy to get to...just a sharp turn and BAM, you're there. If you're coming from Phoenix, follow Flagstaff signs till you have reached the Sedona exit sign. It should say Sedona 179 North. Take that road all the way down till you run into the 89 South. You will drive over Midgley Bridge. Parking fee is $5. CHEAP! There are 4 different trails at this site... Wilson Canyon Trail # 10 and #12 (...I think it's 12) J.W. Powell?? J.W. Something trail. That one looked a bit sketchy. 


So all in all, this trail was rough, but fun. The creek is at the end of the trail, so that was a plus for sure. Simon seemed to enjoy himself. It was definitely a hot Halloween day. Hope to see you on the trails!
