4.0 out of 5 stars
The title doesn't do it justice--it is more than Southern AZ,
By A Customer
This review is from: Southern Arizona Trails (Paperback)
The title SOUTHERN ARIZONA TRAILS is misleading. Only half the hikes are in Southern Arizona. It also covers hikes in the Superstitions (Central Arizona) and some of the hikes in the Mazatzal Range, the Blue Range, and the White Mountains edge into Northern Arizona.The book is pretty good describing trailheads plus trailhead and near trailhead ammenities and is up to date with much of the trail descriptions but not all.
