The Wild Mustang trail follows the ridgeline that is between the Wild Burro and Cochie Canyons. As a ridgeline hike, there are many elevation changes along the way, and like most Tucson Hiking, there are plenty of rocks, and plenty of sun.
- Length: 8 miles
- Elevation change: 1,400 feet
- Duration (including travel):5-5 ½ hours
- Please RSVP on ForeTees up to 7 days in advance.
