Travel the spectacular 800 mile long Arizona Trail as you take in the sights and sounds of the mountains, canyons, plateaus and deserts seeking out the amazing variety of wildlife such as the Roadrunner and Javelina, while avoiding the Gila Monster. From Saguaro National Park, the Sonoran desert, through the largest Ponderosa pine forest on Earth and into the Grand Canyon, you will interact with the incredible diversity of Terrain, Flora and Fauna found in State 48 aka - Arizona. Players will call upon the legendary Jackalope and Lost Dutchman to aid in their travel. Turn order is determined for each round of travel and actions through a unique movement and observation mechanism. Players will need to acquire an interesting blend of key Natural and Personal resources to obtain advantages and create their own mural of Arizona wonders through efficient placement of polyomino depictions. After 8 weeks/rounds of travel, the player who builds a reserve of the most Arizona Grit and Superstition Gold is declared TRAILBLAZER! -description from publisher
