Sedona Westerners

2021/2022 Hiking Season

PLEASE NOTE: All hikers must have signed the online waiver and paid prior to showing up for a hike.
Most of our hikes begin either in the parking area at the Posse Ground in Sedona (indicated by a "PG" in the schedule) or in the rear parking lot of the outlet mall in the Village of Oak Creek (indicated by "VOC"). Other starting points are indicated below. All hikers should be at the specified meeting place prior to the posted start time so we can leave for the trailhead as scheduled.
All hikes return in mid- or late afternoon.
All hike distances listed below represent approximate round-trip mileage and approximate cumulative elevation gain.
In keeping with the Letter Of Agreement between the Westerners and USFS, all hikes involving Wilderness (rated W12 below) strive to have at most 12 hikers in a group. If more hikers are at the meeting place they should split into groups, stagger the start times, and maintain separation throughout the hike. All groups hiking in other than Wilderness are limited in size to 25.
All hikers should be familiar with our hiking rules and hiking etiquette, including the USFS guidelines for archaeological sites.
Please bring a pen to sign the Register, a face mask, and hand sanitizer for each hike.

Due to weather or other circumstances, Hike Bosses may cancel or change a scheduled hike without prior notice.

Take I-17 North and take the Pinewood Blvd exit for Munds Park. Pinewood Blvd turns into a dirt road ( you don't need high clearance vehicle). After about 1/2 mile on the dirt road there is a large dirt parking lot to the left where we will meet. The trail to the lake starts uphill for about 300 feet elevation gain to about 7000 ft altitude. Then we'll hike down to the lake losing about 600 feet of elevation. Break will take place at the lake. This is a new hike for the Rustlers, a little longer than usual, but the weather should be nice and cool at that altitude.
