Hike Profile: black mountain


This hike takes you to the summit of Black Mountain, in the north valley, near the town of Cave Creek, AZ. It's a 2.5 mile round trip hike, that gains over 1000 feet of elevation. The first 1/4 mile, or so, follows a rough road, but after that you hit the trail and it's good, steep hiking all the way to the summit. From the top the views of Cave Creek and the surrounding area are fantastic. As far as hikes in the valley go, it's definitely worth a try.
