The total elevation difference for this wilderness trail is 4,287 feet, and that is higher than average. Mazatzal Divide is 52.6 miles long; it's longer than many great outdoors trails. This is a two-ended wilderness trail with two trailheads, so backcountry hiking it one way is an option if you can arrange for a ride back. Different parts of Mazatzal Divide are at very different elevations which of course means you need to be prepared for different conditions on different parts of the great outdoors trail. This is a long hiking trail, so make sure you bring plenty of supplies. Of course, this is an overnight backcountry hike, 8 days normally, so make sure you've got all your overnight gear packed. This vicinity does get very dry sometimes, so do check for current fire restrictions before you go if you plan to bring a stove or make a camp fire.
