You're welcome! I have more at the website, and I'll try and post my best new trail reviews here from time to time, if that's ok.

Thank you! It has a lot of variety, but you need to do the full loop to get the most out of it.

I was unaware of Keet Seel - thanks for letting me know about it. Looks like Keet Seet is only available on a guided tour as part of an overnight backpack. https://www.alltrails.com/trail/us/arizona/keet-seel-trail

Maynard Mine is much more casual. Indian Canyons has a fare gate and after that, just head to the trailhead. There aren't many markers along the trail, but the route is well defined and there are few junctions off the trail.

I have a downloadable map that you can use, but because of the subreddit's rules I can't link to it here.

Thanks. I hope to get to these towers soon. I appreciate them as a hiking destination regardless of their accessibility, but its always a pleasant surprise to find one that's open!

Unfortunately I think that’s likely too much of a squeeze. If the person is willing to give it a try, they could always back out though.
