Natural Features

The campground sits in a heavily forested pine and aspen forest at an elevation of 8,300 feet in the scenic and remote White Mountains. Chipmunks and Abert's squirrels are common campground residents, and mule deer and elk inhabit the area as well. The nearby reservoir is one of three area lakes on the Little Colorado River.

Summer temperatures can be very pleasant because of the elevation. However, the rainy season often brings afternoon thunderstorms from late June through August. Visitors should come prepared for rain and cool nighttime temperatures.
