Tucked away over the hills to the northeast of Tucson, Arizona is a remote area known as Redington Pass. Most visitors are simply locals looking for a quick escape from the city. Far fewer are the thru-hikers along the Arizona Trail. The area connects the trail from Mica Mountain in Saguaro National Park to the Molino Basin in the majestic Santa Catalina Mountains. In between is a pristine and rich Sonoran Desert grasslands covering large rolling hills that seem to stretch on into an endless distance.
