What a fantastic day hiking the 22 mile loop from City Creek trailhead about 10 miles west of Payson and connecting to Arizona Trail Red Hills Passage #24. I’ve been looking to knock this one out for a couple months and finally got an open weekend to tackle it. What was planned as an overnighter turned into a big new personal record for me in both total mileage and also cumulative altitude gain in a single day.Check out the pics, a link to my gear list for this trip, and write-up here.
