⚠️ Tucson-area hikers & AZT hikers—please use caution!

Sabino Canyon Creek reportedly rose approximately 6 feet in just 15 minutes, and Seven Cataracts on Mt. Lemmon is flowing heavily.

While these areas aren’t directly on the AZT, this is especially relevant for anyone near Hutch’s Pool: please avoid heading down Sabino Canyon to exit the trail given the reported flooding.

Stay safe, and don’t attempt flooded creek crossings. If you need help arranging a ride after safely getting off trail, reach out to us at Finding True North.

What a fun day up on Lemmon! We picked up Pepper & KEVIN!!!! (Say it loud, like in Home Alone! 😂)

Brought these two back to Tucson for a zero day—just in the nick of time with this storm rolling in! They’ve hiked the AZT, the AT, and logged miles in the Sierra Nevada mountains. Always fun swapping trail stories with fellow hikers! 🥾⛰️

And a heads-up for our hiking friends: Mt. Lemmon Lodge now has a hiker box in the Beyond Bread area, right by the fire extinguisher! 🙌

Wow. Check her out!

Everyone listen up! We have a new employee.

She's punctual. She's highly trained. She's an expert at convincing elk to leave the parking lot.

Her name is Blue. She's a Catahoula Leopard Hound and Grand Canyon National Park's new Conservation K-9.

Using controlled barking and herding pressure, Blue helps encourage elk and desert bighorn sheep to return to their natural habitat, reducing wildlife conflicts and helping keep both visitors and wildlife safe.

A round of ah-paws for Blue. 👏🐾

Hey buddy?! Where you going so fast? He was just as surprised to see us mid week on a backcountry trail. 3 days of hiking and we only saw 3 humans & this guy until we made it back to civilization/town. If you know us. You know how excited we get to see critters! The Gila Monster is oh so cool.

Golden hour at camp for the night in the pines and Aspen trees. Enjoyed a beautiful sunset off in the distance. Cherry on top....a little baby waterfall with just enough flow and trickle that we had a camp with a water source. Score!
