Sedona AZ (August 22, 2015) – The dirt trail connecting Zane Grey Drive to West Sedona School and Posse Grounds Park has existed for decades. This important connector in Sedona’s urban trail system now has a new look. The Sedona-Oak Creek Unified School District granted the City of Sedona an easement along the route and the city funded the construction of a wide concrete multiuser path. The trail was straightened and the vegetation cut back resulting in a mud-free walkway in wet weather and improved visibility of walkway. This path provides a safe and convenient route for students going to school or anyone heading to Posse Grounds Park.
The path also forms a segment of an important bike and pedestrian route across the north side of Sedona. Some cyclists have referred to this route as 89B, an alternative to riding along State Route 89A. A cyclist or hiker can travel from Dry Creek Road to Soldiers Pass Road passing through quiet neighborhoods and avoid the busy highway. The route is fairly simple once you become familiar with the streets. Starting at Dry Creek Road, head east along Thunder Mountain and then Sanborn, turn left on Coffee Pot, right on Mountain Shadows, left on Gun Fury, right on Last Wagon, left on Zane Grey, then right on the new concrete path. Go past the school to Carruth, head down Carruth and end at Soldiers Pass Road.
