One trail has many stories. We’re paying tribute to trails by telling the stories of people connected to three: Appalachian, Arizona, and Bay Area Ridge.

@pindroptraveltrailers, a Miami, AZ based company, @pindroptraveltrailers, a Miami, AZ based company, completed a custom designed and fabricated travel trailer for the Arizona Trail Association! Pindrop Travel Trailers designs campers that are self-sufficient and powered by the sun, so you can enjoy the outdoors without negatively impacting it. This camper will be on loan for one year, and will play a big part in supporting trail crews, staff, and volunteer events. Make sure to take a photo if you spot the trailer and share it on social media. Thank you, Pindrop! We also continue to be thankful to @valleytoyota for the #arizonatrail Toyota Tacoma! #pindroptraveltrailers #MiamiAZ #traveltrailer #solar #offgrid
Posted @withrepost • @thestring.bean 800 miles o Posted @withrepost • @thestring.bean 800 miles of sun, smiles, and blisters. And then my Fastest Known Time record attempt went a little sideways with snow 😳 What does it take to run the entire state of Arizona in 13 days? Check out the new doc with @pilotfield 🔥🔥 free on YouTube (check bio link) It’s odd being the center stage of a documentary that is released a year later. Today, I find myself a slightly different person - much the same but still removed. Watching this documentary leaves me a little nostalgic. The Arizona Trail was a magical time in my life that I don’t know when or if I will ever get back. How often can you involve your best friends, your family, your dog and your partner in an intensely personal, powerful multi-day journey. And on that journey, you are all unified in a single outcome? There is so much suffering in this documentary. But more importantly, there is much more joy and compassion. I feel alive just watching it. I hope you do to. The magic in this documentary is not about setting an audacious goal or extreme physical feats. Those things are important, but they are only part of the puzzle. Rather, this documentary is about community, teamwork and empowerment. This is the 5th documentary I’ve been apart of with @pilotfield I’m so grateful for @buffalodills continuing to film, edit and produce content around various different runs. And @jack_murphy_stadium kills it with the videography, but all music is self produced. This collaboration is very home grown. We don’t have an extensive film budget. We don’t try to ‘make’ a cool story. We film what’s raw and allow the story to find itself. Want to help us out? We would be floored if this documentary blew up. Anything you can do from watching to sharing to liking would mean the world to us. Thank you to everyone who was involved on making the doc, thank you to my wonderful crew, thank you to everyone who donated (we raised $17k for two Native organizations @chizhforcheii @nativeamericanrightsfund ), and thank you to the @aztassociation and everyone who makes this footpath special!
On #ThisDay in history, October 2, 1968, the Natio On #ThisDay in history, October 2, 1968, the National Trails System Act was signed into law by President Johnson. As amended, the Act calls for a nationwide system of trails that offer recreational, educational, and accessible experiences for all. The National Trails System traverses over 55,000 miles through 50 states and the District of Columbia, connecting urban, rural, and wild spaces across the nation. The #ArizonaTrail is just one of 11 National Scenic Trails, 19 National Historic Trails, over 1,300 National Recreation Trails, and more than 2,000 Rail Trails!

Check out those new signs! 👀 #ArizonaTrail Asso Check out those new signs! 👀 #ArizonaTrail Association volunteers assisted the #north Kaibab Ranger District Recreation staff with installing four highway signs that identify the Orderville and Telephone Hill trailheads. 🚧To be safe, these signs must be installed to exacting ADOT specifications. Volunteers the dug eight footing holes, aligned the metal sleeves and poured concrete on day one. The following day, after the concrete had hardened, they attached the 13ft-long legs, and very carefully, bolted the signs on. Smoke from the Murray Fire clouded the views the second day. Always something fun to do on the Arizona Trail!
⛏ #TrailworkThursday! Highline Passage: the main ⛏ #TrailworkThursday! Highline Passage: the main focus of this event was to clear drains to prevent water from further eroding the trail, and work on some small realignments. We completed one realignment of about 100’ and cleared the corridor for the next one. We also replaced a couple of wooden water bars with rocks. This will be helpful in keeping the trail sustainable and preventing erosion of the trail. ☀️It was a beautiful time to be working on the trail. The weather was sunny and mild with some light cloud coverage the first day. Rain was forecasted but it never came. The second day was more sunny, but not too hot! ⛰We are grateful to be able to continue the long history of stewardship of this region of Arizona and acknowledge the Yavapai and Tonto Apache ancestral lands of the #MogollonRim Country. #highlinetrail #arizonatrail #trailwork #loveazt
