Chandler Public Library: The Nature of Things – Tales from the Arizona Trail

Its prime hiking time in Arizona!  Join expert hikers, Alix Shafer & Stephen Brown, as they discuss the Arizona Trail’s history, points of interest, and what it takes to maintain our unique state-long trail. The Arizona Trail is our state jewel, starting at the border with Mexico and going all the way to the border of Utah, at a total length of 800 miles. The trail allows users to explore Arizona’s unique biomes on foot, horse, or bike! Other discussion points will include thru-hiking, section hiking, and highlights from the Arizona Trail’s most scenic sections.

Registration is appreciated but drop-ins are welcome!
