Oct 25, 2025 @ 7:07am (America/Phoenix) Oct 25, 2025 | hike Trail is passable on foot, could hike-a-bike the bad spots. Needs some maintenance. Brush clearings and some rock stacking would make this trail a very technical blue trail. | Ideal | view | |||

Jan 11, 2025 @ 6:01pm Jan 11, 2025 | mtb Recent wind storm last week has brought a couple trees down across the trail. If you have enough people in your group at least attempt to drag or move off the trail. otherwise it will be a bit before we can get to them. Could be worse and it could have a couple hundred like it did pre restoration. reporter | Variable | view | |||
Jan 11, 2025 @ 5:59pm Jan 11, 2025 | mtb Woo-hoo. Telephone restoration is done. There is still some trailwork to be done to make it super prime but its brushed open and for the most part in great shape now. Enjoy reporter | Dry | view | |||

Running fast and fun as hell once you get past the little bit of climbing at the top near icehouse. Please be kind to the switch back turns no need to go skidding into them from a distance and continue skidding through the turns. As time provides, we will fix them up better at some point. reporter | Dry | view | |||
Dec 15, 2024 @ 8:22am Dec 15, 2024 | mtb More work has been done on middle telephone. There is only .25 miles in the very middle of that section thats still very overgrown with Locust which is just like catsclaw but with bigger thorns and a tree. Anyways we hope to have it cleared by years end or early january. Only one tree down near icehouse jct. reporter | Dry | view | |||

Nov 23, 2024 @ 2:30pm Nov 23, 2024 | mtb All the leaves have fallen, so the top part of the trail is a bit slippy and some of the rocks / features were hidden. Trail is riding very fast though - one of the best trails on Pinal. | Dry | view | |||
Nov 18, 2024 @ 6:36am Nov 18, 2024 | mtb More Trailwork has been done.We have now finished cleaning up the top portion of Telephone and are moving onto the middle section for restoration work.

Nov 10, 2024 @ 6:57pm Nov 10, 2024 | mtb Lots more work done to upper telephone. While upper portion is primo the middle is a complete nightmare, and it is not advisable to take telephone to icehouse at this time. Restoration work on the middle section will start next week but it will take weeks of work to get through it and right now there is no defined path or trail due to fire damage and post fire flooding. Best to use it as an out and back to add more miles to your sixshooter ride. reporter | Variable | view | |||

Aug 9, 2024 @ 4:26pm Aug 9, 2024 | mtb WEAR PANTS AND LONG SLEEVES. The weeds and other stabby pointy bushes are re-claiming the trail and will make you bleed. Needs a crew with a chain saw and a few weed whackers to clear it out. | Variable | view | |||
Aug 3, 2024 @ 10:06pm Aug 3, 2024 | mtb Several downed trees, black piping intertwined on trail. Still in incredible shape (thank you TGR), just needs a chainsaw and some go around on the black pipe in certain sections | Ideal | view | |||
Aug 3, 2024 @ 9:58pm Aug 3, 2024 | mtb Two downed trees, got one of them off. Overall in great shape. Get some tire tracks on there | Ideal | view | |||
Aug 3, 2024 @ 1:47pm Aug 3, 2024 | mtb Cleared a few trees on the way down, still more that need to be cleared. Needs a solid crew of shuttle riding for a day or a weed whacker to clear the overgrowth. Overall still fun. Get out and put some tire tracks on it. | Variable | view | |||
Jul 29, 2024 @ 10:40am Jul 29, 2024 | mtb The trees on the top portion have been removed. Only a couple after the last climb which hopefully will be gone soon. reporter | Ideal | view | |||

Jul 14, 2024 @ 8:45am Jul 14, 2024 | mtb You can tell a lot of work has been performed here to deal with the post fire restoration, not an easy task. Water is eroding or depositing runoff sediment in some sections of the trail. Wayfinding is a little tricky as you get close to the CCC Icehouse camp due to a lack of signs at some intersections like the Lower 6 shooter/Check Dam trails. You are in a depression that requires a hard left up a section of hard to see trail, where it naturally seems you would want to follow Check Dam. A sign could fix that. On a hot sunny day, you have no shade on this part of the trail, so if you are really toasted after a trip down upper 6 shooter, just take the road back to the campground instead of this trail, you won't be missing much. | Dry | view | |||
Jul 14, 2024 @ 8:36am Jul 14, 2024 | mtb This trail has great potential if some sections in the middle have the flow improved. Don't be tricked into thinking this is a 3000' decent without some climbing and hiking. There are about six significant downed trees currently. About half way down in the creek area there is a significant land slide that has taken out 15 feet or so of the trail, it's walkable. Surface conditions past the 1/2 way point consists of lots of dry needles and leaves, which can lead to interesting traction situations on the steep sections. Overall, a solid black trail that needs a little love in terms of improving the bench of the trail in some areas. | Ideal | view | |||
Jul 7, 2024 @ 2:58pm Jul 7, 2024 | mtb For the most part the trail is running great. Half a dozen trees down and typical overgrowth for this time of year. Long sleeves recommended. reporter | Variable | view | |||
Jul 7, 2024 @ 10:22am Jul 7, 2024 | mtb One tree down near ferndale lot. Also some sections are very overgrown at the moment. Luckily, we did lots of grubbing of spiny guys last season so there are only a few snaggers along the way. reporter | Variable | view | |||

The top 1/2mile still needs love and where the trees were removed there is lots of debris to clean up. Hopefully only two more trail days and it will be Prime! reporter | Variable | view | |||
Mar 8, 2024 @ 5:05pm Mar 8, 2024 | mtb Weather has dumped more snow! But luckily prior to this the trees on the lower 1.5 miles have been cleared. Most of these were the ones that feel during monsoon last year. reporter | Snow Cover Partial | view | |||
Mar 5, 2024 @ 3:18pm Mar 5, 2024 | mtb Thanks to the Globe Hot Shots the bulk of the trees that were left have been cut. Don't expect it to be tree free and beware of the black pipe. Soon hopefully we will have a solution for the pipe and its location within the trail corridor. The pipe is quite high on a nice rocky turn as you come around it. If you see the metal water tanks then watch out right after. reporter | Snow Cover Partial | view | |||
Mar 5, 2024 @ 3:03pm Mar 5, 2024 | mtb Woo hoo. The Globe Hot Shot Crew came to our rescue, and they have cut out all the deadfall that was on Lower Telephone. So, it is now 100% clear. We are still doing treadwork but will be finished in the next few weeks at most. Expect the best conditions ever! Minus missing trees ect from the fire. reporter | Variable | view | |||

Mar 4, 2024 @ 2:39pm Mar 4, 2024 | mtb Snow has melted significantly. Those brave for early season fun should expect ice and snow in places. Mud and dust in others.

Mar 4, 2024 @ 2:31pm Mar 4, 2024 | mtb Yes! After the last couple years of restoration work Icehouse is now open. However be aware that there is a lot of trees down approx 1/2 mile from the lower telephone trail junction. A hot shot crew is doing downfall clearing on the mountain where no owl nests are located and it is possible that icehouse may be cleared (MOSTLY) reporter | Snow Cover Partial | view | |||
Mar 4, 2024 @ 2:28pm Mar 4, 2024 | mtb Finally after our completion of restoration last summer this portion of trail is now officially open to the public. Expect a little overgrowth just past the upper creek crossing coming down. If you don't see the clear path the old road path will get you through it as well. reporter | Dry | view | |||
Mar 4, 2024 @ 2:24pm Mar 4, 2024 | mtb We have been working hard on tread restoration on this trail but we have brushed it open 100% and 1/2 of the treadwork has been done. Due to this we allowed to open it back up. Expect some down trees and winter debris. Best bet is to wait a few weeks before venturing out on lower telephone as there is a hot shot crew going out to cut out the downfall soon.
