Better way to ride this trail is starting at the Staging Area ride north on the doubletrack and then left about .3 miles out. Stay on the ATV trail for about 4 miles as it crosses the road and then stay left at most forks and take the steep 50 yard ramp climb. When hitting the doubletrack at 4 mile point, turn left to Reddington Rd and hit the AZ Trail across road for 5 miles of heaven. It also goes south to teh Rincons. Before getting to the top of the climb there's a tough series of steps. If you can clean it, you are a climbing god.

The best ride here is 8 miles, 4 of it singletrack, some of Tucsons very best. Park at parking lot with ramps for unloading ATV's. Ride up Reddington Road about 2.5 miles to cattle guard across road. Trails on both sides of the road. Right trail is easier and loops back to starting point of trail. Both are the Arizona Trail.
Go left and climb a tough mile with very hard stair climb near the top. If you can clean these you are a climbing god. Begin the 4 mile descent on killer singletrack. Lots of cows here, watch out for the pies. When you reach Belloita Ranch Road you can cross and head to Milagrosa. Most will go left and climb the 2 miles of steep road to the Reddington Road. There turn right and go back to starting parking lot.

it's a nice quick ride. out and back took me about 40 minutes. good if you're just starting out in the sport like me. the hills weren't too bad.
