The Essential Phoenix +Scottsdale Are you ready for some amazing food? I hope so! April is when we have a plethora of culinary festivals around the Valley, so bring your appetite and get ready to sample some of our fabulous eats (pg. 24). For a different view of our local scenery (not to mention a good workout!), check out our hiking guide (pg. 22). Plus, we chat with a coffee guru (pg. 64). 90 MINUTES IN:

Tempe Town Lake Twenty years ago, Tempe’s lively, sparkling waterfront simply didn’t exist. The riverbed of the Rio Salado had long run dry through the college town due to upstream diversions, but when engineers found a way to fill in a twomile “lake” bookended by inflatable dams in 1997, developers leapt aboard. Today’s Town Lake offers a marina, boat rentals, a water playground, recreational paths, views for high-rise office and condo tenants, Tempe Center for the Arts, and an LED bridge that illuminates each time a light rail train crosses. Sign up for a class such as SUP Yoga; rent a kayak; walk, run or bike on the surrounding paths; play a game of volleyball on the sand courts; and more.

RECREATION

Hiking the Trails of Phoenix and Scottsdale Get off the beaten path and back to nature with this guide.

Hiking Tom’s Thumb.


w w w.wheretraveler.c o m

MOUNTAIN MAGIC

The Valley of the Sun, by virtue of being a valley, is naturally surrounded by some of the country’s most majestic mountainscapes. Tourists and residents alike flock to Phoenix and Scottsdale trails to tackle the challenge these mountains present. The chance to commune with nature is a strong lure: indigenous desert critters, breathtaking scenery, and the blanket of spring wildflowers beckon hikers to explore Arizona’s trails. While most people are familiar with Camelback Mountain, that hike is only suggested if you’ve hiked before and are prepared for the short, but steep, climb. Never fear though—there are plenty of opportunities no matter your fitness level.

GATEWAY LOOP, SCOTTSDALE One of the most popular trails in the McDowell Sonoran Preserve, Gateway Loop covers 4.3 up-and-down miles with an elevation gain of 650 feet. The Preserve itself encompasses 30,500 acres and is the largest urban park in the United States. Given its residential location, Gateway attracts many hikers who add this trail to their regular routine. Parking is plentiful, and the hike can be completed in roughly two hours—making it the perfect start to your day. As an added bonus, Gateway Loop Trailhead features some of the nicest trail restrooms in the Valley, helpful volunteers, and free Wi-Fi. 18333 N. Thompson Peak Road

deliver perfect views of downtown Phoenix, including the famed Camelback Mountain. This is a popular area for fitness hikes, with runners sharing the trails with hikers and mountain bikers. 10600 N. 7th St.

TOM’S THUMB, SCOTTSDALE If you’ve wanted to walk into the clouds, Tom’s Thumb is for you. A steep hike with numerous switchbacks, this out-and-back trail offers an amazing payoff at the top: a captivating view of the McDowell Sonoran Preserve, Scottsdale and beyond. Given the vastness of the Preserve, you can connect to other trails and even approach Tom’s Thumb from the south at

CAMELBACK MOUNTAIN, PHOENIX If you have to do “the hike” in Phoenix, prepare for Camelback Mountain. Choose either Echo Trail (2.5 miles and 1,280 feet) or Cholla Trail (2.84 miles and 1,250 feet), or for the real go-getters, you can do both, either as a shuttle hike or out and back. Be sure to pack gloves since you’ll encounter handrails that can be slippery and hard to grip without some assistance. Camelback offers a true challenge for even the toughest athletes, and you may want to give yourself extra time not only to ascend but to enjoy the panoramic views at the peak. This is the hike you’ll boast about to your friends and family for years to come. Echo Trailhead: 4925 E. McDonald Drive; Cholla Trailhead: 6131 E. Cholla Lane —Amanda Collins

Gateway Trailhead. Also at this location, you’ll have access to Marcus Landslide, which offers a geologic wonderland of amazing boulders. Tom’s Thumb is 4 miles with a 1,236foot elevation gain; Marcus Landslide is a 4.1-mile lollipop with 518 feet in elevation change. 23015 N. 128th St. PINNACLE PEAK, SCOTTSDALE Although in the vicinity of the McDowell Sonoran Preserve, Pinnacle Peak is a separate park managed by the City of Scottsdale. A quick trip out and back, this trail is popular with guests at the Four Seasons Resort, located nearby. At just 3.5 miles total, you might label this an easy hike, but your legs will be feeling the 1,300-foot cumulative elevation gain, which you’ll definitely feel on your return trip. However, the views of multimillion-dollar homes are stupendous, and the lookouts clearly illustrate which peaks you’re seeing—perfect for newbies and out-of-towners. 26802 N. 102nd Way

NORTH MOUNTAIN NATIONAL TRAIL, PHOENIX A hidden gem in plain sight that is accessible from many entrance points, North Mountain is nestled in the heart of North Phoenix. A full-service visitor center is located across the street from Pointe Hilton Tapatio Cliffs Resort, attracting many visitors for a quick jaunt. You can see the highlights with this short 2.3mile loop on the National Trail that climbs 780 feet to

[WHERE INSIDE]

Valley of the Sun

What sets ROC2 apart from others? Over the past 20 years, I’ve developed relationships with some of the finest coffee producers in the world. We utilize state-ofthe-art equipment, including German-built Probat coffee roasters. We recently acquired a custom roaster from a specialized division within Probat, of which there are only five in the U.S. Unlike some of the roaster/retailers in the Valley, we utilize destoning equipment that removes all of the foreign objects that comes mixed in raw coffee. This saves the life span of the burrs of coffee grinders. Sharp grinding burrs are an important facet of preparing a quality cup of coffee.

David Anderson [President , Roa stery of Cave Creek]

What do you do when you want to control the profiles and freshness of your coffee? Roast your own! David Anderson began roasting coffee in 1997 after opening the Cave Creek Coffee Company & Wine Bar. Others soon heard what he was doing, and the business grew quickly. He began cultivating direct trade relationships around the world, and today, the coffee is poured at some of the best restaurants and resorts across the state. Describe the Roastery of Cave Creek: Founded in 1997, The Roastery of Cave Creek (ROC2) started as a boutique operation in the foothills of the Tonto National Forest roasting estate-grown, certified organic coffee for some

of the area’s best-known restaurants. Our 20-plus single varietals and blends are all roasted to yield a balanced, full-bodied flavor and rich, smooth cup. Beans, growlers of our Cold Brew and coffee subscriptions can be purchased at

ROC2, online at www. roc2.coffee, or at Arizonabased Whole Foods and La Grande Orange Grocery.

Let’s talk about your trade relationships… We work with a number of different importers and also have direct trade relationships that have arisen from my numerous trips to origin, including within Africa, Indonesia, Central America and South America. All of our coffee is certified organic.

You own the company with your wife, Alison. What sparked you to go into this business?

Where are some of the places people can find your coffee served? This list is long and I

hate to mention some and not others. I enjoy working with chef-owned establishments. Most are “Best of Phoenix” winners and either James Beard winners or nominees. Where can fans purchase the coffee? It is available at Whole Foods, Natural Grocers, La Grande Orange and at our Roastery. We are a wholesale operation, so we are around 8ish to 4ish M-F. Occasionally you may find me on the weekends working in our coffee lab on roast/ blend development. Any fun facts about coffee you can share? Ahhh, let’s see. Coffee is really good. It is the second largest commodity traded worldwide, second only to oil. Over half of every American has a cup every day. The United States is the largest consumer of coffee on the planet. There are several billion cups consumed every year. (We help out with this number…my wife and I drink several cups every day.) We heard you also love photography and that you’re a welder. What do you love about it? Like coffee, both are outlets for creativity. I have always had a love of the outdoors and enjoy landscape photography. I have fabricated a lot of the steel work at my roastery, and furniture for customers and at our home. Discover more at

COURTESY DAVID ANDERSON

I either had to get a real job or start a business. I like to goof off, and this path has afforded me the ability to do so. I have had the opportunity and honor to travel extensively to several coffee-producing countries.
