After doing El Camino del Diablo on Nov. 16-18 with Nullifier, my father and I will be exploring Southern and Central Arizona for the week!
I'm interested in out the way scenery and camping locations as we do a counterclockwise loop from Ajo back to California. My modified Subaru does well on 3 and 4 rated trails (from the 1-10 scale in the Backcountry Adventures books), but 5 rated trails will likely be too difficult. Hopefully there won't be too much damage leftover from the monsoons!
Just about everything in Arizona will be new to me, since I've only passed through on the interstates. Short hikes (<6 miles) are welcome every day, and I don't have any interest in snow camping/hiking.
In addition to the Massey/Wilson Backcountry Adventures: Arizona, are there other reference materials I should seek out?
