A Visit to Tom's Thumb Trailhead...

A Visit to Tom's Thumb Trailhead

After hiking two times at White Tanks Preservation Park near Surprise, AZ, (For my post about hiking at White Tanks Preservation Park, click on this link.) I started thinking about other areas of Maricopa County that I haven't visited.

After recently watching a locally produced TV show called "Trail Mix'd" on the the local PBS affiliate in the Phoenix, AZ area about the Tom's Thumb Trail, I thought that I would make the long drive from to Scottsdale, AZ from Sun City-Peoria, AZ to visit the trailhead.

This post will be about my visit to the trailhead for Tom's Thumb Trail in the McDowell-Sonora Wilderness Preserve near Scottsdale, AZ.

After visiting the Tom's Thumb trailhead, I also visited Cave Creek, AZ.

Like all of my other posts about hiking, there are quite a few tasks that I need to accomplish for this post.

In no particular order, here are some ideas that I have:

  • Add a photo of the hardcopy map to my post.
  • Add a topographic map of the Tom's Thumb Trail area.
  • Add some of the photos that I took on my visit to the trailhead at Tom's Thumb.
  • Include a section about my short visit to Cave Creek, AZ.
  • Add a map of Maricopa County, AZ.
  • Anything else I can think of.

As per usual, I need to set up a two-page spread in my bullet journal for this post and brainstorm some ideas on what I want to do with this post.

More to follow.
