This saddle is a fantastic spot to catch sunrise on Goldmine Mountain. The views stretch all the way down to San Tan Valley.

• Footwear: Sturdy hiking shoes or trail runners with good grip
• Sun Protection: Hat, sunglasses, and sunscreen
• Navigation: Trail map or GPS device; while the trail is well-marked, it’s always good to have a backup
• Snacks: Light snacks to keep your energy up
• Camera/Phone: To capture the stunning views

⸻

🔑 Key Points
• Trail Conditions: The trail is well-maintained but can be rocky in sections.
• Wildlife: Keep an eye out for local fauna, including reptiles and birds.
• Facilities: Restrooms are available at the trailhead.
• Fees: There is a day-use fee for the park; check the official website for current rates.
