Maricopa Trail Walk: Goldmine/Wagon Wheel to Mansel Carter Park

EVENT INFORMATION

Saturday, January 11, 8:30-11:30am: (NOTE: This is a one-way guided 6-mile walk with the Ranger). This walk is designed to help 100 Miles Challenge participants attain their “third park” requirement by traveling on a segment of the Maricopa Trail but is also open to non-participants. You must make travel arrangements ahead of time to have a vehicle at BOTH the starting and end points, plan for drop-off/pickup, or walk an out-and-back on your own. Carpooling is encouraged due to limited parking at the starting trailhead. We start at Goldmine Trailhead off Wagon Wheel Road and follow the MT via surface streets, paved pathways and sidewalks to Mansel Carter Oasis Park (19535 E Appleby Rd, Queen Creek 85142). We will discuss local history along the way, including the story of Mr. Carter, and make a brief stop at the Desert Wells Stage Stop on Sossaman Rd. Please RSVP to nikki.bunnell@maricopa.gov so that I can have a headcount and can share more details. Wear closed-toe shoes and bring water, snacks, hat and sunscreen. Meet at the Goldmine Trailhead off Wagon Wheel Rd. (Approx. address 34300 N Goldmine Gulch Trail, QC 85142)
