Subject: RE: Prescott Routes Adela, Granite Mountain has a bunch of intersecting trails that you can run at the base of the mountain, or turn it into a run/hike by going up trail 347 (I think). Also, thumb Butte has a short but fun trail around its base and going up as well. If you don't mind street/sidewalk running, both Willow Creek Road and Iron Springs Road offer good climbing and sidewalks/bike lanes. Iron Springs Road gets out of the city fairly quickly and the bike lane goes away, but it's shady and scenic. Willow Creek has bike lane all the way out to Pioneer Parkway, but it is city most of the way and not as shady. Great views of Watson Lake, though. |
