"Hiking the Beautiful Black Canyon National Recreation Trail is how an Arizona loan officer "regroups!" We in Arizona are soon looking forward to enjoyable 80 degree temps in the desert. There is so much to do in the great outdoors of Arizona but I highly suggest"regrouping" in the cooler weather of the Bradshaw Mountains, and it is only 30 minutes north of the Valley of the Sun. This trail received the prestigious award of being designated a National Recreational Trail in June of 1998. The trail is for mountain bikers, equestrians and for hikers such as myself (yes, that is me in the pic above!). (7 comments)
