ARIZONA TRAIL

AZT Day 31: Zero Day in Pine

ByPurple Haze Posted onApril 18, 2012September 19, 2025

Daily Miles: 0, Total Miles: 475.5

I got my gear cleaned up and washed my filthy clothes. Then the early bird special at the Early Bird Cafe – three eggs, bacon, hash browns, watermelon, biscuits and gravy and a huge pancake – highly recommended!

I strolled down to the Pine library to update my journal and to the market for snacks and tomorrow’s breakfast. Then to the thrift shop to replace the hiking socks I accidently left behind in the Superstitions. The only matching pair my size were some worn, blue dress socks for 25 cents – what a steal!

I enjoyed a good dinner at the Rimside and had a nice chat with the owners, Steve and Tamara. They outlined plans for their new venture, That Brewery. Good luck, I’ll be back!

Packed up and ready to go for the next leg to Flagstaff.
