The Huckaby is a system trail in the Coconino National Forest. It is well marked with signs and easy to followhis trail, constructed in 1998, is never far from the sights and sounds of Sedona. It is a pretty trail which offers a variety of views. It can be hiked from the Schnebly Hill trailhead (as described herein, shown below) or from Midgley Bridge.
The trail is nearly level for 1/8 mile. The Margs Draw Trail forks off to the left soon after leaving the parking area and the Huckaby continues ahead descending rather steeply to cross Bear Wallow Wash, then ascends moderately over the next 1/2 mile. It tops out on a ridge and winds on level ground with nice views over Oak Creek and Uptown Sedona to many of the familiar red rock formations of the area.
FINDING THE TRAILHEADS
