New Troon North Hiking Trails to Open

by

The McDowell Sonoran Preserve has recently celebrated the debut of its newest trailhead, located right in Troon North, between the entrances to Talus and Boulder Crest. These Troon North hiking trails are part of 13,000 acres of new land over McDowell Sonoran Preservethe past three years, the McDowell Sonoran Preserve has aimed to pay back the public, whose tax money helped fund the expansion. The Brown’s Ranch Trailhead provides greater accessibility to over 50 miles of trails, including those that lead up to Brown’s Mountain.

The 13,000-acre expansion came with a price tag of $218.3 million. This was covered in part by a voter-approved sales tax and by matched funds from the state program, Growing Smarter. The McDowell Sonoran Preserve now reaches 27,800 acres, though the goal is to expand to around 34,000 acres. The Preserve’s purpose is to protect the natural landscapes and ecosystems, as well as to maintain the lands’ precious connection to the Tonto National Forest.

The Brown’s Ranch Trailhead is scheduled to officially open at sunrise on October 19th, just in time for the hiking season to kick back up. Contact me to find out about any Troon North homes for sale. You can reach me at (602) 791-0536 or at Carmen@TopScottsdaleHomes.com.

Pinnacle Peak Patio Provides an Old West Experience

by

Located in the heart of the Troon North area, is a well-known gem dedicated to preserving the Old West. Pinnacle Peak Patio is a little piece of history and one of Scottsdale’s many attractions. Though the city is known for its pinnacle peak patio scottsdalesprawling golf communities, pristinely manicured desert scenery and many modern amenities, Pinnacle Peak Patio, a newly renovated steakhouse and brewery is still a favorite among tourists, locals and even a few big-name celebrities.

What started out as a general store and resting area for fishermen in 1957 became a full-blown restaurant, serving up “Sonoran” brand beers and classic Western barbecue. Pinnacle Peak Patio has since hosted such high-profile guests as Tom Cruise, Paul Newman, Patrick Swayze, David Hasselhoff and Michael J. Foxx. In 2006, before owners Gary Pryor and Harvey McElhanon regained control of the property, the restaurant was ready to be redeveloped into a five-star resort. Today, Pinnacle Peak Patio is back in good hands and going strong.

Pinnacle Peak Patio is the home of a few long-standing and somewhat peculiar traditions such as clipping and hanging up the ties of overdressed patrons or serving an old boot to guests requesting their steaks “well-done.” Whether you are a Troon North resident or just in town, this 56 year-old icon is worth a visit; just leave your tie at home.

There are a number of prized restaurants and attractions in the Troon area of Scottsdale. If you are interested in any Troon North homes for sale, give Carmen a call at (602) 791-0536.
