Maverick OHV Trail is a 97-mile out-and-back route in Arizona's Apache-Sitgreaves National Forests, within the Black Mesa Ranger District. It is a hard trail with an elevation gain of 1,785 feet, starting at about 5,914 feet and climbing to 7,218 feet. The Forest Service manages the land. The most comfortable months for a visit are typically late spring and early fall. At the Heber (Black Mesa) weather station, about 16 miles away, typical averages run from highs near 71°F with lows around 39°F in May to highs near 75°F with lows around 47°F in September. That station sits about 628 feet lower than the trail's high point, so temperatures on the route run cooler. The trailhead parking is at Blue Ridge #2, and the Maverick Motorized route lies just 0.1 mile away. Within about five miles are the Cottonwood route, the Juniper Ridge Trail and Lewis Canyon campground.
