Since it was 102 degrees, I did a sunset hike up Wedding Cake Hill (Old Turks Head). It's
in Apache Junction, at the southern edge of the Superstition Mountains. I started at the Hieroglyphic Trail parking lot at 5pm. It's a scenic and easy hike to the base of Wedding Cake Hill from this trailhead.
Hiking back to my car was challenging even under the light of a full moon,
and I used my headlamp. It was often hard to see the trail coming down Wedding
Cake Hill in the dark. It was much easier and faster once I was back on the Lost Goldmine Trail. This is a beautiful short hike.
