Shingle Mill Trail #35 is a 9.8-mile out-and-back hike in the Safford Ranger District of Coronado National Forest in southeastern Arizona. It climbs from about 4,600 feet to just over 7,600 feet, a total gain of 3,072 feet, and is rated expert. The route is a single long climb. It starts at a low point of 4,601 feet and rises to a high point of 7,677 feet. That makes it a serious day, and the grade is steep enough that a full day to allow time for the climb and descent is the best plan. The Shingle Mill Loop hike is less than a mile away, and Shingle Mill is a mountain biking trail about 1.9 miles off. For longer stays, Soldier Creek and Riggs Flat Campground are both within about 6 miles.
