Sunrise on the Arizona Tail

Arizona Trail 2024

The AZT is 800 miles long, running north to south (or south to north) through the center of the state. I hiked it southbound, starting from the Utah border on September 25, 2024. The southern terminus is on the Mexican border, and I reached it on November 19.
