BEST TIME TO HIKE IN ARIZONA

Of course Arizona can be hiked all year round. But why would you? Let’s avoid the crowds, Trust The Trail recommends hiking or camping in Arizona’s high desert in the Spring and Fall. Arizona can rise to the triple digits in the summer, and those months also happen to draw the largest crowds in areas like the Grand Canyon. National Forest Rangers recommend One Gallon of Water per Person per Day. That’s usually in the Spring and early Fall. Remember, Arizona does NOT get a lot of Rainfall, so water can be scarce in the Summer. Plan and Prepare!
