Trailhead Directions: From the "Y" ( the intersection of State Route 89A and State Route 179), drive south on SR 179 for 7 1/4 miles and turn left on Jack's Canyon (go 270° around the 3rd round-about in the Village of Oak Creek). Drive for 0.3 miles and turn left on Suncliffe Drive. Follow Suncliffe for 0.6 miles until it intersects Pinon Woods Drive.

Description: We named this hike the Weaver Trail for some friends who live just down the street from the trailhead. It uses several of the trails around Courthouse Butte and Lee Mountain. It provides wonderful views of Rabbit Ears, Lee Mountain, Courthouse Butte, Bell Rock and Cathedral Rock. You'll come across "Little Baldy" (or UFO) rock on the loop.
