Although I haven't personally seen the trail yet, except for, perhaps a small section that shares the CDT in the Gila, Brett aka Blisterfree, has taken some remarkable photos while plotting and hiking the trail over the last several years. With his permission, I'll share those here. I highly recommend that you use the slideshow function found on the right of the individual galleries.

The Grand Enchantment Trail is a 730-mile wilderness walking route across the Southwest U.S., connecting mountains, deserts, canyons, and places of cultural and historic interest. Beginning in the Sonoran desert near Phoenix Arizona, the route meanders eastward, crossing unique and diverse Sky Island mountain ranges, deep and water-blessed desert canyons, the pine-studded Continental Divide, and toward the southernmost Rocky Mountains, where it descends dramatically to the outskirts of Albuquerque New Mexico at its distant terminus.
