I plan on bringing a several loaves of homemade bread. If I know how many people are coming, I might be able to do a loaf per person.

Regarding the Sat morning hike, from the NPS trail guide:

MODERATE HIKES – One to four hour
hikes with elevation changes of 500 feet or
less. Gravel trail surfaces.

ECHO CANYON TO VISITOR CENTER
LENGTH: 4.2 miles/6.8 km No Pets
Echo Canyon, Upper Rhyolite Canyon and
Lower Rhyolite Canyon Trails
ACCESS: Echo Canyon Trailhead
TRAIL: Mostly downhill through spectacular rock
formations in Echo Canyon. White-throated swifts are
common in the summer. One stream crossing on the
Upper Rhyolite segment can be hazardous if runoff is
significant. The last half of the hike is in shaded oak
woodlands. Make sure you have transportation back to
your vehicle or ride the hikers’ shuttle at 8:30 a.m.

I want to do the hike. I have a foot injury that is nearly healed. So long as that continues and I can get some trail time in the next couple weeks to get myself back in shape, I'm in.

Cool. I haven't done the hike all the way down to the visitor center before, but that's what I'd like to do this time. The trails are fairly foot-friendly, and it's all downhill.

Count on one more "maybe I'll be there" if someone can tell me where in the heck it is and how to get there.

In Google maps, type your destination as "Turkey Creek Campground".

Google shows the location as either Cochise County AZ or Pearce, AZ.

It looks like we have 7 members confirmed. Will anyone be bringing kids or significant others? I would volunteer for a Saturday pancake breakfast for everyone.
