As of this writing a GPS can lead you to the start. There is no trailhead and it may take a little looking around to figure out where it goes. Once on track it's easy to follow.
It must have taken an army to cut through all the deadfall. Save a small sixteenth mile stretch in a ravine it's remarkably well maintained.
The trail yo-yos ravines along HWY 67 for 8 miles. At 8.3 miles you have entered phase II. A well established trailhead for the Kaibab Plateau Trail #101 is a welcome sight as you are now out of the torch zone.
The first half of the hike struggles to pull in a 1 out of 5 rating. The second half is a strong 3 being an enchanting stroll through meadows and low valleys. The pine forest here is oh so pleasant, similar to the eastern side of Willow Crossing #38. |
