7Mile Island

Trail Overview

7Mile Island is a single-lane wide trail with minimal obstacles. There are some wash crossings with steep entrances and exits, but nothing that gets too gnarly. The standard erosion exists on this trail but there are bypasses in place. Creosote lines the southern part of this trail. As you move northward, the vegetation spreads out as is typical with Arizona hill country. This route is on Arizona State Trust Land and requires a yearly permit that can be purchased and printed online. The permits allow certain recreational activities, including camping, bicycling, bird watching, GPS-based recreational activities (geocaching), hiking, horseback riding, off-highway vehicle (OHV) usage, photography, picnicking, and sightseeing.
