There is a reason why this trail is so popular. It is because it is so beautiful. Long drive to get there from Phoenix, though, like almost 4 hours! Again, I have no idea who this person is. https://www.arizonahighways.com/explore/hiking/west-baldy-trail
@kali66 Indeed, it's far! But everything in the west seems to be....the landscape just goes on forever. The White Mountains is my favorite part of Arizona, but I so rarely go there because of the distance. We make it up there maybe once every five years-ish.
