Location: South-End of Whitetank Mts
Trail Rating: 3.5+
Description:

Appetizer is a short trail, and like the name indicates, just enough to make you want more. Luckily Tax Collector is not to far away. Appetizer takes off from the main road at the bottom of a small wash. The first part of the trail is usually pretty brushy; after the brushy part you will see some hill climbs out of the wash on the right which you can play on. Keep going up the wash, there will be some boulders to crawl over, the easiest lines are about 3.5, the hardest can be 4.5+. At the end of the trail there is a small waterfall, pick your line and once you're at the top, you're done. The wash continues for a little ways, with several exits on the right side that lead to a class 2 trail. Taking a right will lead you back to the main road, taking a left will take you toward Tax Collector.

Remember to Tread lightly!

How to Get There:
Take I-10 West from Phoenix. You can take either the Jack Rabbit Trail exit or the Miller Road Exit. Take either road South to Yuma Rd; for Miller Road this is immediately after the Freeway Overpass. If coming from Jack Rabbit Trail, turn right (West) onto Yuma Road; if coming from Miller Rd then turn Left (East) onto Yuma Road.

Keep an eye out for Watson Road (Grated Dirt) which will take off to the North (about 1 mile from Miller, 2 miles from Jack Rabbit). Take Watson Road North; it will cross under the freeway. The road will cross a small wash at an angle, turn left into the wash, this is Appetizer. If you come to a sharp turn with some sand hills off in the distance, you've gone too far
