Thunderbird Mountain H-2

A couple weeks back DH and I decided to try this trail ( the H2 ) trail which is the mountain on the "other side" from where we hike regularly. Somehow we felt like we took a wrong turn and just wandered around in the desert for an hour ... turns out that is a trail too! It was the H1a! Anyway, that one is just a flat trail in the desert-- very boring and not recommended.
But today we did get to try out H2... we liked it, but it was a little tough going up. The trail is VERY rocky and hard to get a good pace going.
It does have some beautiful views...
and oh it feels good to make it to the top!
On the way down the trail has lots of loose gravel and more big rocks...
The trail took us about 45 mins- an hour.
The facts-
Length- about 2 miles
Level- moderate
Cost- FREE
