The group meets at the Upper Tanque Verde Falls Trailhead parking lot, reached via Redington Road east of Tucson, in the Coronado National Forest. This hike follows a desert trail into a rocky canyon that opens onto seasonal pools and stone ledges carved by running water. The outing is organized as a small group gathering for the local LGBTQ+ community and friends, with well-behaved dogs welcome to tag along. The path crosses open desert scrub before dropping into the canyon, where hikers pick a route across boulders and smooth rock to reach the water below. The terrain shifts quickly from flat trail to hands-on scrambling, and cell signal fades once the canyon walls close in. The short distance keeps the morning relaxed, leaving time to rest by the pools, watch the canyon light change, and talk with the rest of the group along the way.
