My AZT Background Story

The Arizona Trail, aka AZT, covers 800 miles from the Mexican Border to Utah. It winds through forests, deserts, rivers and summits. Each year thousands of people thru-hike, backpack, bikepack, day hike, horse ride and walk this beautiful trail.

In March 2020, along with my 2 hiking buddies, Janice and David, I started a thru-hike attempt of the AZT. Heading Northbound (NOBO) we finished 76 miles then jumped off trail due to the Covid-19 pandemic.

Since that time I made a vow to myself to finish hiking the rest of the trail – MILE by MILE.

Please note :

All miles represent Northbound (NOBO) mileage, starting from the Mexican border to the Utah Border. Listed in numerical order, not by date done. And I’m jumping around the trail so there will be gaps until I’m done. 🙂
