The beauty of the Red Rock region of Coconino Forest has been drawing outdoor enthusiasts for well over a century. The region offers a wide variety of outdoor activities including hiking, hunting, and camping. This route is a link from the desert region around the small community in Perkinsville to the pines that are high above in Kaibab National Forest surrounding Flagstaff.

Not a lot to say about this trail. It's a main artery connecting you to larger things. We popped off at the bridge and took some photos along the way. This was a smaller leg on a much longer trip up the Northern Arizona Traverse. It's worth noting that there is a new, TWO YEAR area closure around the bridge to help stave off the inconsiderate from trashing our public lands and allowing the area to recover from abuse. It relates to Forest Roads 9004W and 9004M. You can still pass through via CR70. Details can be found here: https://www.fs.usda.gov/detail/prescott/news-events/?cid=FSEPRD955364
Arizona National Forests and State Lands are back open for travel. There are still some very important fire restrictions in place. These restrictions can often change by specific areas.
Trail is open and trail conditions were great. Started at the Verde River and traveled north. Nice trial be it was had been very dry in the area. No water running in any of the creeks except the Verde River.
After having just traveled south on https://www.trailsoffroad.com/trails/3245-perkinsville-old-354-road this was a blessing. Way point 5 is amazing! There is no change in the trails conditions as described above.

While living in the Midwest, I developed a passion for searching out new trails and hidden spots. That passion continues to this day in the beautiful southwestern United States. My wife and I are full-time RVers who travel from region to region, exploring every nook and cranny we can find. While getting to know the locals, we gain insight into these areas and then pass on that knowledge to our subscribers. We truly enjoy traversing long, beautiful back-country routes with epic campsites, but we equally enjoy pushing the limits on challenging rock crawling trails. Our rig was built to do everything, and that's what we hope to share with our subscribers.
