Pass Mountain - Tonto National Forest

I hiked up Pass Mountain from the parking area on North Usery Pass Road. From there it was a 21 minute hike to the junction of the loop trail. The trail keeps heading up the mountain at the junction. Going to the summit was 3.8 miles round trip. When I stood on the summit it had taken me 1 hour and 18 minutes from my car. The elevation gain was 1,160 feet from the road. This was my third time on the summit. It took me an hour to get back to my car.
