There are parts of the Arizona Trail that are scenic and stunning. There are other parts that are connectors. This stretch is more like a connector. Heading north from 89A you start out in a nice Ponderosa forest. After a couple of miles this transitions to a Pinyon-Juniper habitat. Then you are in a sage meadow on an old unused two-track road. Lots of rusted cans, probably from cowboy & ranching days before LNT. Saw lots of jackrabbits. Great mule deer country and we saw signs of mule deer but they appeared to have migrated north to Utah already. Not much AEG on this section, just a nice long trek. We saw what we think were abandoned badger dens and an unidentified skull that we think is either bobcat or badger.
