Hi,
Enjoy this trail guide for hiking the Butcher Jones Trail located along Saguaro Lake near Fort McDowell, Arizona.
I hiked this trail at 6 a.m. in late June to beat the heat and lake crowds. At that early time of the morning, the birds were chirping and the waters were calm. I didn't include background music for the hiking sections of this video, so that you could enjoy these relaxing sounds to their fullest.
