Sharon J (and others): I read your review of the Coconino National Forest from a few years ago (2013). My wife and I are going there for the first time next week. I am looking for some of the "off the beaten path" trails and sites that you and your friends may know. We are only there for two days. But while we are there I would prefer not to do the typical tourist activities. Unless there is something that I should not miss. If that is the case I suppose going first thing in the morning would help to avoid the crowds. We will be there on a Wednesday and Thursday. Thanks very much, Dan and Laura
