| no partners | | We began at the South Kaibab trailhead, SOBO. Within the National Park, the AZT is not clearly marked until it becomes the the Tusayan connector trail. The first 6-8 miles are mostly paved, though there is one AZT stretch in the national park that follows a power line maintenance road. At the Tusayan turnoff, the AZT becomes two-track and single track to Grandview Lookout. Though designated "easy" in the AZT bicycling guide, the two-track is actually quite rocky and rutted.
What we thought would be about a 6-hour tops ride ended up being about an 8 hour trip. Shuttling is an issue, since no shuttles travel between Grandview Point overlook (near the Grandview Fire Tower). The AZT Trail Angel for this section has said that shuttles might be possible. |
