Bikepacking the Madrean Rugged Ramble: A 260 mile adventure in Arizona

SUBSCRIBE TO MY CHANNEL: http://bit.ly/DLAMBBIKEPACKING In Februrary 2025, I bikepacked the Madrean Rugged Ramble: a 260 mile route out of Tucson Arizona. The route spends roughly half it's time on the Arizona Trail and passes through the communities of Sonita, Patagonia and the ghost town of Lochiel. This route was rated by Bikepacking.com as the best week long route of 2025. Having completed the route, I can confidently say it is one of the best winter time Bikepacking routes in the US.
