The Plan is to hike north past Mule Shoe Bend to the Verde River. On the river float and hike back to Red Creek all in a day.
This trip ended up a little longer than expected. Turns out it was 5 miles to the Verde and over 9 miles of of the Verde River. After 7 miles of rock hopping and rapid negotiating we were exhausted and beat. We made camp 2 miles and 3 hours from our destination.
This was another great trip to Red Creek despite the rock battered feet and legs.
