Arizona National Scenic Trails (Non-Units)

Arizona National Scenic Trail

5/2/2014 Headed east then north for the first of two Arizona NST sites. This one was where the trail, paralleling the road on the north, angled north up a primitive road. I had to hop a gate which was chained shut so I could walk the trail a little (rather than the road). Continuing north, then west, I hit the second stop. At this one, the NST ran through some really beautiful scenery before going under the highway through a culvert. I spent some time here taking photos of the mountains, cactus, etc.
