SUMMARY:Hike: Mecca Grotto (Fairly Strenuous) - FULL (waitlist)
DESCRIPTION:Leader: Robin Halford\, ABDNHA Volunteer \nNote the meeting location detailed below. The Mecca grotto collapsed several years ago\, so this hike leads to the beginning of the now impassable slot. Expect sandy washes\, views of the Salton Sea from the high point of the ridge\, as well as a visit to the palm grove on Hidden Spring on the way back. The total hike distance (round-trip) is 5.7 miles. No bouldering\, but there are some uneven\, steep sections on the ridge. Sturdy shoes recommended. Bring snack/lunch\, electrolytes\, water\, and poles. Call 760-767-3098 to reserve. Limit 10. \nDriving instructions to the meeting location: Drive North on Hwy. 86 and go right (east) on 66th Ave. Go over the bypass bridge and turn right (east) at the light. Drive 9.9 miles and park just past the jeep road on the right side of Box Canyon Rd. We will meet here. The road is usually OK for 2WD with high clearance.
