Woods Canyon Lake

I just booked a trip to Borneo for later this fall, and plan to hike to the summit of Mt. Kinabalu (approx. 13,400 ft) while I am there. In preparation for that hike, I decided that I needed to get out of the Phoenix area and get some practice hiking at higher elevations. With fairly level trails at 7500 ft, Woods Canyon Lake near Payson seemed like the perfect starting place for my "training" hikes.

This is a nice hike around the lake.

Even I couldn't get too lost on the trail with the blue diamond markers on trees!
