Superstitous of Superstition Mountains

Last Saturday, I went to conquor the last item on my things to do before I leave: Superstition Mountains. Kat and Tod (from work) and Kat's friend Jessica decided to beat the heat of the day (99 deg) and head out early. We hiked for about 4 hours. We went through about 2 Liters of water each, and were still thirsty. Never before have I honestly felt like I was lost in a desert with absolutely no shade around and no water in my pack. We never we lost, but we were out further from the car than we thought. By 1pm we were back to the van and heading back. Here are a couple pictures from the hike and the Superstition Mountains.
























On our way back to Phoenix, we went through a town called Goldfield, which is honestly a Ghost Town. There were people dressed up as cowboys who were shooting at one another (of course not real), and when a lady would walk by, they would fight over her. Kind of fun!! Great way to top off a hike...watching them beat up one another and eating ice cream!!
