Love this place!  Great place to go safely hiking and get a workout.  But it is a trail where it is harder to come back - more uphill.  Most hikes you reach your peak and then it's all downhill from there.  Not this place :)  Great views!  Usually see Chuckwallas (lizards) and I just saw my first rattlesnake on this trail and I have probably hiked this trail 20 or more times.  If you are visiting Scottsdale, you must go, even if you just get to the peak, without heading over to the second mountain.  Fabulous!
