Apache-Sitgreaves National Forest

About a 1/4 mile to the South of the property lies the magnificent Apache-Sitgreaves National Forests, that encompasses over two million acres of amazing mountain country in east-central Arizona. The Sitgreaves National Forest was named for Captain Lorenzo Sitgreaves, a government topographical engineer who conducted the first scientific expedition across Arizona in the early 1850’s.

On the Sitgreaves, the major attractions for the visitors from the desert are the Mogollon Rim and eight cold-water lakes. From the Mogollon (pronounced: muggy-own) Rim’s 7,600- foot elevation, vista points provide inspiring views of the low lands to the south. The Rim extends two hundred miles from Flagstaff into western New Mexico.

The Apache National Forest ranges in elevation from 3,500 feet to nearly 11,500 feet and is named for the tribes that settled in this area. The area from Mount Baldy east to Escudilla Mountain is often referred to as the White Mountains of Arizona. From the edge of the Mogollon Rim south of Hannagan Meadow, the land drops precipitously into the high desert around Clifton.

Features

Driving Directions

As depicted on the map below there are at least 4 driving routes to the property. When we visited the parcel, we used Route #4, which is the quickest route, and the roads going into this area are good, until you leave the initial housed area. The worst stretch of this route was Dead Horse Road. The road drops down into the canyon and is very difficult to traverse with several stone steps. A 4×4 vehicle with high clearance is recommended if your plan to approach from this direction.

If you’re driving a 2 wheel drive vehicle we’d recommend using Route #1 or #2, as they don’t appear to cross any significant obstacles. Route #3 may also be a good choice, but it does cross a drainage area that may be difficult to navigate in the months when there is a lot of rainfall in the area. To be clear, we have not tried routes 1-3 yet, but they do appear to be the best option for 2WD vehicles with decent clearance.

Did you know that you can click any of the Route links below and open that map with turn by turn driving directions on your phone or other device, and then follow the map directly to the property using your device’s GPS?

Show Low

In 1856, Show Low’s founder, Corydon Cooley, left Virginia at age 20 to come to the New Mexico Territory. After service in the Union Army and as a scout and interpreter for General George Crook, Cooley married into the White Mountain Apache Tribe. Chief Pedro became his father-in-law. The tribal center is located in White River and old Fort Apache approximately 40 miles from present day Show Low.

In 1873, Cooley moved his family to a small cabin on the banks of what is now Show Low Creek and became a ranching partner with Marion Clark. After the legendary card game of 1876, Cooley named his newly-acquired ranch “Show Low”. As you explore the area, you’ll quickly find that the community has a storied tradition rich in Western history.
