Template:Trails The Arizona Trail is a trail from Mexico to Utah that traverses the whole north-south length of Arizona. It begins at the Coronado National Memorial near the US-Mexico border and moves North through parts of the Huachuca, Santa Rita, and Rincon Mountains; then through the Santa Catalina and Mazatzal mountains, to the San Francisco Peaks, and on to the Grand Canyon. It terminates near the Utah border in the Kaibab Plateau area. It is about 90% complete as of late 2005, and is planned to be about 800 miles long when completed. It is designed as a primitive trail for hiking, equestrians, mountain biking, and even cross country skiing. It showcases the wide variety of mountain ranges and ecosystems of Arizona. The idea for the trail was originally developed and promoted by Dale Shewalter, a Flagstaff, Arizona teacher in 1985.
