Location Information
This trail is not only easy to get to, but it provides a relatively moderate hike to
some of the best views in the Huachucas. In the process it also offers access to
two of the highest points in southeastern Arizona, Carr Peak and Miller Peak. For these reasons, this combination of trails provides some of the most popular hiking on the Sierra Vista District. To get to the top of Carr Peak (9,230'), you'll need to follow the short but steep Carr Peak Spur. The main trail continues on to a connection with the Crest Trail, which offers access not only to Miller Peak, but to the rest of the Huachuca Mountain trail network.These trails are not recommended for horses.
