Habitat: Barnhardt Trail
Posted: Thu Apr 11, 2019 5:34 pm
Not our first rodeo at Barnhardt, but another glorious hike along one of the most famous hiking trails in all of Arizona. This spectacular trail takes you roughly 5 miles and 2000' elevation gain to the very top of the Mazatzal Wilderness, where it meets other trails in a remote and rustic area in which you could lose yourself for weeks, possibly months. Most of the trail is atop some fairly tall canyon walls that follow a major runoff area. Along the trail A. chrysantha, A. toumeyana, Echinocereus santaritensis, and Dudleya saxosa are found in enormous numbers.
