Close ups of the sign and map of the Arizona Trail

Signs that describe the mountains and habitats of the area

A sign that marks the Arizona Trail. this one has been damaged but it still shows the complete trail and where we are along it.

Some of the color still remaining in fall

Signs along the trail. There are not many signs, the trail is quite obvious for the portion we hiked

Some evidence of past fires are all over, like the burns on this cactus. We saw a small tarantula on the path

Here is the small male tarantula with a pocket knife for scale. This is the smallest tarantula I've seen in the wild. Note the wood and rubber (old tire) used to create interesting water bars to divert rainwater from cutting a trench down the trail

About half a mile east of the road and Moleno Campground looking back west. You can se the road climb up and head west out of the valley and the blacktop road at the campground is visible running paralel below it.
