Guide Into the White Mountains of Arizona/Popular Hikes and Lakes From Showlow to Springerville

Welcome to the White Mountains located in the northeastern part of Arizona.

Features:

* 200 miles of hiking trails for everyone to enjoy in every season. From the lowlands to the highest peak, which is Mt. Baldy.

* 57 natural fishing lakes with a wide assortment of wildlife. Bear, elk, deer and lion has been spotted on many occasions as well as smaller wildlife.

* In the towns of Showlow, Pinetop-Lakeside, Springerville and Greer, you will find plenty of places to stay overnight, whether you are camping. RVing or just want a nice cabin.

* The White Mountains are surrounded on three sides by Indian Reservations; Fort Apache Indian reservation to the south, Navajo Indian reservation to the north, Hopi Indian reservation a little farther north and west. All three are intermingled in a vast eco-system which is the Sitgreaves National Forest.

Benefits:

* Where at an elevation of 7,800 feet+, this is a place where the air is still fresh and feels as if the stars are within touch when they light up the night skies.

* Many of the lakes and streams are accessible by car and you can drive right up to them for a wonderful day of picnicking, fishing, swimming or just lazing in the sun.

* Great place to get in shape and stay in shape!

* Bonus: Folklore tales and cultural events for every season.
