Hiking up the Goat Trail deeper into the canyon

The notch at about the halfway (2-mile) mark

Looking back out the notch

Towers up ahead still

Another rear view, a little higher up

The towers getting closer

A fighter jet from nearby Luke Air Force Base buzzing the peaks. There was another one too. I wonder if they saw me

The lower shack at the towers

View south, Cat Hill and peaks in the Buckeye Regional Park

The shack, now that I'm at the highpoint

More towers

Tower city

This hump may also be a highpoint

Barry Goldwater Peak

The two highpoints, the right one is the hump, the left one is at the end of the towers
