The rugged country along the Mogollon Rim was once roamed by Geronimo and the site of many a skirmish between the Apaches and the U.S. Army. Today, the Rim running through the Tonto National Forest contains a great area for horsemen that want to traverse steep, rocky and trails. We will take you along this breathtaking countryside and ride all the way to the edge of the Grand Canyon. This is a camping ride with vehicle support starting from the Mazatzal Wilderness "Land of the Deer" (it stretches over 252,500 acres of the Tonto and Coconino National Forests) and along the Mogollon Rim to the Geronimo trailhead. From here we follow the rim and magnificent canyons with Ponderosa Pines to the small logging towns of Pine and Strawberry before going onto the Colorado Plateau toward our destination. The second week goes from Strawberry to Williams into the Kaibab National Forest on historic cross country trails and tracks, then north through the Babbitt Ranch to reach the edge of the Grand Canyon above Moqui Stage Station. An unforgettable experience.

Although this is a “Point to Point” ride with some “lay-over” days, although there will be several camp moves during the 2 week trail. You will only be requested to tend to your personal luggage during the move. The Guides, Wranglers, and camp jacks will see to everything else. We want this to be a fun and memorable experience. Only work you’ll perform will be tending to your trail partner for the ride (grooming and tacking your horse.

The trails and routes selected will give you the most picturesque and interesting ride you can experience and the final reward of seeing the Grand Canyon will make it the most memorable.
