hi y'all,
I am planning to visit the superstition wilderness area in a few days.
this will be my first backpacking trip in AZ. I've done a decent bit of hiking in the Sedona and Flagstaff areas over the last couple months but I understand that this terrain is different. I've been told that the Charlebois and Labarge springs will be most reliable for water right now, so I'm planning for that.
I'm looking for suggestions for routes for either one or two nights as well as specific areas that are good to set up camp. I'm comfortable doing +/- 6 miles per day. I was thinking of starting from the Peralta trailhead, and making some kind of loop around Weaver's needle and Black Top Mesa, maybe ending it with coming back by Miner's Needle.
thanks in advance!
