hey guys welcome to the channel if you're new here we are Trekking Pals
Habiba and Alex with amateur hikers and backpackers and we create video content
every Tuesday how they out how deep
in today's episode we're going to take you up coming back Mountain this is one
of the most popular hikes in Metro Phoenix and a hike that we've done
before many times but since we are participating in the six pack of peak
challenge that we talked about in a previous episode we decided to do this
hike one more time hey guys we are at the trailhead of kamma bat mountain here
in Phoenix for the second peak of the six pack of Peaks challenge there are
two trails that take you up the mountain and this time we decided to go up Echo
Canyon Trail and come down via Troy Trail
we're here at the first legit rest spot I would say today I was hoping for the
trail to be less busy confessed to usual because Camelback Mountain both trails
are usually busiest trails in the city but even with the cove in nineteen it's
like that a lot of people we're getting now to this section here with a little
bit more stairs and then thrills so quite a bit of scrambling but it's the
part that I'm excited for most he goes Uncle Todd Alex
I came power number two and toast know me it was the perfect weather to be on
the trail especially with the Sun out and with the beautiful and colorful
wildflowers
I'm great
we're getting to the end of the trail here with the last bush on Echo Canyon
Trail and I can already see Alex up top with the Thomas yeah can't wait to show
you the view from up there we're here at the top of Camelback Mountain the second
mound in our peak our six pack of Peaks challenge and we can't wait to show you
the view here we're now going down Troyer trail and we already worked on
the arrangements about parking the car in a different trailhead and can't wait
to show you the views here the trail is marked pretty well and I think they do a
good job here of making sure that there are enough markers on the way
you
these reflectors here on you I don't remember seeing them last time we were
here only had the page which is pretty good night time thank you there are one
or two spots where you can easily get lost if you didn't know where you're
going
we've pretty much done with scramblers here at the helicopter landing so the
rest of the hike is going to be straightforward hi hi I'm in the photo
I'm in the photo are you having fun I'm having a blast it's good weather for
this yeah it really is so it looks like when there's a rescue being done up here
somebody has some need for help did this rescue in progress sign
he'll string it up or chain it up between three these metal poles here
Pleasant outside today
the one thing that these trails offers that compared to Echo Canyon Trail is a
nice view of all the houses here in Scottsdale Paradise Valley and the golf
courses
we'll come in to the end of this trail here second peak four more to go thank
