This is fun: Combine the most scenic hike in a 50 mile radius, the Woodchute Trail 102, with another picturesque route down to the Potato Patch campground tagged on, the imaginatively called Potato Patch Trail 531, (secret just between you and I🤫: no potatoes anywhere🥔), and you have a nice 9 mile hike with 1,100 feet/335 meters elevation gain pretty as can be! 👍🏼🙂🤠🌄💚❗️
By the way, no way to park at the trailhead of the 531 is allowed, a genius move by the forest service to keep it quiet for the campers with their loud generators I suppose (❓️). They call it Travel Management Rules or TMR, i.e. bureaucratic speak for "we protect the environment and others from you, because we know what you would do... Destroy Absolutely Everything!" They generally do a great job with very limited resources ( fs.usda.gov/r03/prescott/recreation/trails#:~:text=The%20Travel%20Management%20Rule%20(TMR,land%20and%20its%20natural%20resources. )...
... Thus, a perfectly suitable large parking area sequestered away from everything is a place that can become hell🔥 for you, if you planned the hike 🗺from there and did not know better🛂🚓. (See my highlight for a photo of the new warning sign.)
Instead, you want to park at the trailhead of the 102 after frequenting the you know what 🚻🚾 one seater 'restroom' found about 0.7 miles back on the dirt road that gets you there, hence a double out-and-back/in-and-out hike you can cut short, if it is a little too much for you.
Alternatively, you could get a camping spot for two days, unless you get your hiking done before checkout by 12 PM, noon.
