Once past the first big climb, and the highest point of the hike, you can see down the Apache Trail
A long ways above the creek bed that is an eventual destination
First glimpse of Battleship Mountain and Weaver's Needle
Superstitions Ridgeline, or part of it anyway
The lake is almost going out of veiw
The saddle trails go up and down a bit, so you are almost always climbing or descending
