This trail begins at the Arizona Snowbowl Ski Resort and ends at Humphreys Peak, the highest point in Arizona (12,633 ft). The 4.5 miles to the summit is steep but fairly easy on the pads if they are well developed. The dirt trail is full of small pebbles so you may get a little sensitive on the way down but overall it is a great run and feels fantastic. However, the last .5 miles is a bit rougher as it is higher elevation tundra. The rocks are fair sized and take extra manouvering to avoid collision. Nothing to rough on the pads; just watch out for a stubbed toe.
