Looking for an aggressive experience which brings you to Sedona's highest and most impressive peaks? This adventure will let you push your limits and climb the famed Bear Mountain. Along the trail you encounter four "false summits" to spice up the adventure and make the seemingly short distance more difficult than it sounds.
Named after an infamous local bear hunter who hunted over 200 bears in Sedona, and earlier escaped from San Quentin State Prison in California at least once.... This trail will live up to it's name and provide a hardy experience, not of the faint of heart. Along the trail you will have incredible south facing views of Doe Mountain, Capital Butte, Mitten Ridge, Airport Mesa, Scheurman Mountain, Fay Canyon, Brins Mesa, Wilson Mountain, Courthouse Butte, and Bell Rock.
Three of the areas four vortex sites will be visible from this trail, and the photos will rival some of the best you've ever seen for a half day adventure. This steep trail will impress all, but the questions is, are you ready to go summit bagging?
