VOAz, in partnership with Payson RD of Tonto NF has launched the Highline Trail Rehabilitation Project to restore this 50 mile trail and the linking Horton Creek and Derrick Trails. Events on this project will be opening soon (fall 2012) and continue for several years. The work will engage volunteers, paid crew and use of mechanized trail work tools. Read More!

VOAz has been awarded a grant in the amount of $33,000 from the National Forest Foundation for restoration work on the nine plus miles of the Derrick/Highline/Horton Creek Trails. The work on this spectacular and popular loop hike is to be completed by September 1, 2013. We will rely heavily on the contributions of volunteers. Check out the Calendar for scheduled events.
