Welp, 800 miles - FINALLY DONE! Due to super busy schedules across 4 hikers PLUS mother nature (The fires up on the north Kiabab torpedoed our planned finish last summer....), it took us much longer than anticipated, but last weekend my partners and I finally finished the AZT. Like many of you, I'm a native and love AZ. Doing this hike gave me an opportunity to see (and walk through) parts of the state that I had never seen. Many of them I am sure I will never see again! The real ball busters were Miller Peak, Superstition Wilderness (We did Roger's Trough to Roosevelt in one day. Ugh!), Rincons - Mica Mountain, the Mazatals, and of course the Rim to Rim. Many of the other sections were hard, but those 5 stood out. We of course hiked lots of easy stuff, too. Mexico Utah

It helps to be both lucky and good

Buy the dip, hunt the burn.

Beyond a shadow of a doubt. It’s probably still Epstein doing it.

I think it was more of the people of Kentucky taking out Massie! It appears that they don't waver when a little puff of wind comes along! I wondered who would be the first Rino, dem, commie to post something.

I think Trump targeting and taking out Massie shows you all you need to know about Trump. If you still think he’s got America’s best interest in mind after that, you gotta dig your head out of the sand.

Cliffs: a congressman with a 96% liberty score was labeled a democrat and had a $30 million campaign mounted against him funded mainly by 3 Israelis. The most money spent on a primary ever.

I had a stock 1997,they i got crazy

This day in age, a 180 buck is the new 200"... I've been lucky to kill quite a few on general rifle tags but way harder now than just a few years ago. No fawn crop basically from 2019 through 2021 let alone the latest droughts. Very tough....

You can’t reason with horse people. They’d rather all the native wildlife die so the horses can live

Gotcha, it's a smoking deal for 850. Ammo alone is worth half of what you're asking.

It will be interesting how these primary winners fair in the Fall. In AZ trump backed candidates have struggled to win, especially statewide elections. Hence our two dem senators and a dem governor.

I agree. How does it stop or with the current drought, population explosion and lack of predator control does it? The Dept isn't going to implement any real tag reductions, the drought is ongoing and population growth has too much big money behind it to slow down. The desert mule deer is in serious trouble.

Lock down the whole state until we get some rain. Hopefully no dipsticks start the state off this weekend.

I guess I'm old then. Oh well, I can live with that. My parents with Ed in 1969

Not really any unusual wildlife, unless you count 'hardcore through-hiking hippies'. Saw several of those along the way. LOL Saw some of the usual wildlife, but honestly not too much. Mainly because we were either yapping out loud, plus I had my Vizsla with a bell around her neck for lots of the trail. Wildlife generally heard us coming!

I didn't go to the bar today so I got 20 bucks in my pocket. Dandy tho.

Apache Sitgreaves will start Stage 1 on May 19. https://www.fs.usda.gov/r03/apache-sitgreaves/newsroom/releases/apache-sitgreaves-national-forests-will-implement-stage-1

That's awesome man, it's crazy to think one trail goes all the way from the border 35a all the way up to the kaibab. Congrats! How many rattle snakes did you come across?

to the OP, burn your points in the other unit, go hunting... leaves one more tag for me with my .000001% chance

the horses are all from the apache reservation to the south, or descendants of those horses

Look, I hated Biden. I have voted for Trump and recognize him as better than the alternative. But I also don’t see a need to stroke him because of the color of his tie. The inflation incurred under Biden was largely the result of Covid stimulus passed under Trump. When Biden passed the fourth after his inauguration it pushed the needle to red, but it was just making a bad situation worse. Every president since Reagan has been progressively less fiscally responsible than their predecessor. He’s not any different. He just talks trash to the same people we do.
