Arizona
Total Time: 1:30 Hours
Total Distance: 2.5 Miles
Trails:
Phoneline Trail
Historic Sabino Trail
This was my last day in sunny Arizona. Took the tram to end of the Sabino Canyon Road, and started hiking up the mountain on the Phoneline Trail, which snakes around as it curves up the mountain. After it climbs, the trail evens out along the middle of the mountain and retains a similar elevation midway on the mountainside. Continued south above the canyon on the canyon wall roughly paralleling the Sabino Creek until we hit the Historic Sabino Trail, which we took back down to the bottom and back to the road where we picked up the tram again.
