I know up the 87 is Sunflower Mine Trail which is a 3 and a pretty cool trail. Just before Sunflower is Log Corral which is pretty easy but has 1 challenging rock garden. It also goes over the top of the hills to Bartlett Lake and you can cross the Verde and spit out in Carefree somewhere. Payson has a good trail that about 3 with a very tricky waterfall at the end.
I would love to join but I have other plans that weekend.
Looking to put a run together for Smasher in Cottonwood.
