Completion of the AZT
Stretching more than 800 miles, from the U.S. border at Mexico to the Utah state line, The Arizona National Scenic Trail (AZT) was a big-horizon goal. Inspired and supported by many people, I decided to section hike a contiguous trail northbound (NoBo). My journey began June 2015 and was completed September 2021. What follows is a personal postcard for every day that I was on trail. Enjoy the journey! http://AZTKatlas on YouTube
With love, from the Arizona Trail
One of our favorite wilderness artists is Kat Manton-Jones, whose illustrated journal, The Katlas (KatlasJourney.com) depicts her backcountry adventures on the Arizona Trail. Here are some of her brand-new sketches, which she created on a recent walk from Mormon Lake to Schultz Pass. A four-page full-color excerpt of Kat’s journals was featured in the first issue of the journal Deep Wild: Writing from the Backcountry last summer. The 2020 issue, just published, includes some B&W drawings from her Anasazi Artwork series.
