Join us in Cave Creek for a scenic hike on the Go John trail! This loop trail has scenic views of Cave Creek Regional Park. Afterwards, for anyone interested, we will be heading over to Big Earl's Greasy Eats for lunch,

NOTE: This trail is located within the Cave Creek Regional Park. There is a $10 per vehicle fee. We can meet in the parking lot near the Home Depot off Carefree Hwy if people want to carpool into the park. Bring some cash to split the cost. It's 15 minutes from there to the trailhead.

Be at the trailhead and ready to hike at 10:00am. Give yourself extra time to pay the entrance fee, drive to the Go John Trail trailhead parking lot, and meet up with the rest of the group.

Wear sturdy shoes, dress for the weather, and bring at least 2 liters of water.
