The Anderson Mesa portion (geographically, not just the AZT segment) is extremely muddy, difficult to hike in the morning, and impossible to hike while raining, due to the goopy mud. I would recommend anyone exit at Sandy Canyon trail and hike the Lake Mary rd until the AZT crosses south of Upper Lake Mary.

Over 2 days hiking I only had to shelter from lightning for about 45 minutes, but spent hours hiking in the rain. I'd guess the area got 4 inches over those 2 days.
