On May 20, eleven hikers from the PebbleCreek Hiking Club checked out the new Midlife Crisis Trail in South Mountain. It was a surprisingly cool day in May for a hike, almost 20 degrees below normal. This trail was a little more “adventurous” than expected as there were several sections that went across boulder formations, making it challenging to find the continuation of the trail. Fortunately, this group is an adventurous bunch and everyone enjoyed the hike.
