With love, from the Arizona Trail

One of our favorite wilderness artists is Kat Manton-Jones, whose illustrated journal, The Katlas (KatlasJourney.com) depicts her backcountry adventures on the Arizona Trail. Here are some of her brand-new sketches, which she created on a recent walk from Mormon Lake to Schultz Pass. A four-page full-color excerpt of Kat’s journals was featured in the first issue of the journal Deep Wild: Writing from the Backcountry last summer. The 2020 issue, just published, includes some B&W drawings from her Anasazi Artwork series.
