Arizona trip recommendations?

solitude, mileage and water can be found in the Supes. Just stay off the Peralta and Dutchman trails. Get the Beartooth publishing Superstitions map and/or the Hiker's Guide by Carlson/Stewart. Jack Carlson is a stand up dude and i was fortunate enough to contribute to his latest book, Hiking the Eastern Superstitions.

if you wanted solitude for sure, parts of the AZT like Picketpost to Kelvin and/or the Safford-Morenci/Aravaipa GET sections would be my choice.

I used to live in Yuma, AZ. I'd say the southwest part of the state is a bit dry and unforgiving, but the castle dome area is pretty cool. I'm not too sure how well it would serve for backpacking, but you can do some great canoeing trips down the Colorado River down there.

Near Bisby AZ is really awesome, the apache areas.

thanks for the great info…the hike Arizona website is super helpful.
