New Trails: 07 December 2008


By Stefan Bill - Posted on 07 December 2008

Miller Canyon MapleStefan Bill added 13 trails to our trail guide, all within Coronado National Forest near Sierra Vista, Arizona.  These trails form a network in the Huachuca Mountains that is excellent for birdwatching, fall colors, and year-round hiking. A few of the more notable trails:

  • Crest Trail #103 - This trail forms the backbone of the trail network that crisscrosses the Huachuca Mountains and therefore most trails lead to it.  There are spurs that lead to Miller, Ramsey, and Pat Scott Peaks.
  • Hunter Canyon Trail #111 and Clark Spring Trail #124 - These two trails contour along the east slope of the Huachucas, connecting three of the major canyons that cut that side of the mountain range.

Also, elbillo added the Escudillo National Recreation Trail #308 near Pinetop-Showlow in Apache-Sitgreaves National Forest in eastern Arizona.  This trail leads to the top of Arizona's third-highest peak.  At the summit there is a fire lookout tower that offers a 360-degree view of much of the state.

Our trail guide is created and maintained by fellow outdoors enthusiasts, which means you too can share your adventures by adding your favorite trail!
