Cave Trail to Bluff Spring Trail - Superstition Mountains

I don't think anyone does this as a loop hike, but I find it fun and challenging.

Temptation Peak - Goldfield Mountains

Temptation Peak itself requires class 3 moves with exposure to get up and down. I began my 3.9 mile round-trip hike at 10:40 AM, when it was about 94 degrees. I reached Peak 3157 in 1 hour and 30 minutes. Then it took me another hour to reach the 3,195-foot summit of Temptation Peak. The hike was unusually long because I was constantly out of breath. It took me 5 hours and 26 minutes.

Puerto Peñasco (Rocky Point) - Mexico

The maximum depth of the Sea of Cortez is roughly 10,000 feet. Located in the southern portion, particularly in the Guaymas trench, the deepest parts are caused by complex plate tectonics.
