i am from NY so i am not familiar with the climate in AZ, but i have been there a few times to hike the grand canyon.

i wouldnt be able to start the AZT until winter time. im pretty sure it still gets down to like 15f from dec-feb. is that true? that’s a little too cold for me.

if you could hike half of the AZT, which 400mi section would u do? i care about scenery and water above all else

    The stretch between Oracle and Superior is the lowest desert. You could stretch that to Roosevelt but will have to hike through the Superstitions where you could get snow or cold rain if a storm comes through.
