𝐌𝐔𝐒𝐓 𝐃𝐎:📍Flatiron via Siphon Draw Trail near Apache Junction, Arizona 🤯🥵💪 The Flatiron via Siphon Draw Trail is a challenging yet breathtaking hike located in Arizona’s Superstition Mountains. This steep, rocky trail takes you through a rugged desert landscape, offering stunning views of towering cliffs, unique rock formations, and sweeping vistas of the valley below. The final ascent to the Flatiron is a rewarding scramble, making it perfect for adventurous hikers. ADD THIS TO YOUR BUCKET LIST‼️ [𝙎𝘼𝙑𝙀 𝙥𝙤𝙨𝙩 𝙛𝙤𝙧 𝙥𝙡𝙖𝙣𝙣𝙞𝙣𝙜 𝙡𝙖𝙩𝙚𝙧]: 🥾 5.5 miles round trip (though, from the parking lot to the start of the trail, it adds 1 additional mile) 🥾 2,627 ft elevation gain 🥾 Difficulty Level: Hard / Strenuous 🥾 Located 1 hour east of Phoenix, Arizona in Lost Dutchman State Park / Superstition Mountains 🥾 Not family-friendly, as it requires a lot of scrambling (and small climbing portion at the very end) throughout the trail 🥾 Dogs are welcomed; however I personally don’t recommend it, as it requires a lot of scrambling — unless they are trained and conditioned well 🥾 Bathrooms are available at the trailhead 🥾 $10 entrance fee required per car 🥾 Parking available at trailhead (park at the last parking lot for this particular trail) 🥾 No high clearance vehicle or 4x4 required to access this trail; all roads leading to the trail are paved streets 🥾 Additional things to park: hiking sticks for stability, trail running or hiking shoes with solid grip as there are a lot of loose rocks, gloves to grip on too rocks while scrambling, water, sun block, and snacks to enjoy at the top for a view 🥾 Alternatively, you can also camp at the top! I haven’t personally done it, but it’ll be nice to do Remember to LEAVE NO TRACE 🫶 Enjoy 🚀 • • • • • • • •
