Best Day Hikes on the Arizona National Scenic Trail

The book was released December 2020 and has detailed hiking directions as well as interpretive information about the archaeology, history, geology, views, plants and animals you’ll see along the way. Each of the hikes is connected to one of the Gateway Communities along the trail for post-hike eats and things to do.
