Time: 7:30am to 11:30am

Location: Picture Canyon Trailhead, 3920 N El Paso Flagstaff Rd, Flagstaff AZ

Meeting point: We will meet in the parking area for the Picture Canyon Trailhead at 7:30am, which is found on Route 66 and N El Paso Flagstaff Rd. If taking I-40 east, take exit 204, then turn left onto Route 66, and take a right onto N El Paso Flagstaff Rd.

What to bring: Be sure to bring sunscreen, walking shoes, a hat, binoculars, and water.

About the location: Dirt trails will be sloped in some spots but is all still easy walking, and outhouses are located in the parking area. This is a larger spot with 2-3 miles of walking and can take up to 3 or 4 hours depending on how distracted we get, but there will be trails to turn back early throughout the area.
