Itinerary description

August 19,1944 a WW2 plane crashed just East of Lake Pleasant.
http://www.aircraftarchaeology.com/at6lakepleasant.html

All of this hike is off trail. You will find some mule/donkey trails to follow in some areas.

I hiked to the plane crash, then hiked up the hill to the South-West. Here you have nice views of Lake Pleasant. I then back tracked toward Black Mountain. I hiked up Black Mountain, then back to my truck. Great day for a hike, the Cacti are starting to bloom.
