| Approaching Madera Canyon; about 30 miles south of Tucson. Still a bit of snow on the higher elevations. |
 |
| The trail selection is huge; we choose Bog Springs. There was a rescue operation underway further up the mountain for some hikers. Hoping they found them. |
 |
| it is just hard to realize we are in Arizona right now :) |
 |
| The trail starts off easy; there is an elevation gain from this point on...up we go. |
 | |
| the trail was very pretty |
 |
| no, that is not a lake; it is part of the local copper mines...but amazing you can see it so clearly.The area shown is also home to the Titan Missile Base, which is suppose to have a great museum reliving the cold war era ( heck, younger people may not know anything about that) . |
 |
| our trail ended at a spring ---which was kinda disappointing because it was just a concrete well... but the hike had great views of surrounding mountains and was a good workout! We climbed 89 flights of stairs according to our fitbit! |
 |
| okay, so this is not the spring...after we came back to the parking area, we crossed the street...what a great place with no elevation change :) |
 |
| next time we are taking this trail along Madera Creek! |
