off the beaten path this 1 acre area is a great place for off grid camping, no utilities and is remote, may require off road vehicle. great place to spend a few days on jeep trips. no fires of any kind allowed, please note this is a camp at your own risk, not responsible, for damage or injury of any kind, camping at this site, is accepting of these terms. 6 miles away and at elevation of 6,000 feet, Lyman Lake State Park is one of the best ways to beat the Arizona heat with summer days hovering in the 80’s and 1,500 acres of water to jump into. The behemoth lake can be experienced along shoreline trails where petroglyphs grace the rocks and jackrabbits scurry through the wildflowers. But let’s be real, you came to get wet! There’s plenty of splish splashing to be had; jet skis, speed boats, canoes, and kayakers all share these waters. There’s no better way to take to the lake than skimming the surface on an innertube. Anglers can enjoy the quiet west end of Lyman, word is the walleye and bass hang here in the no wake zone.  at 44 miles you into the famous Petrified Forest. Don't be afraid! This expansive park covers 230 square miles of Arizona desert, extending into the badlands and the Painted Desert. The Petrified Forest is famous for its fossilized trees, which fell about 225 million years ago. There's also spectacular colored rocks, a result of the Chinle Formation. Hike, sightsee and photograph your way through this unique landscape of grandiose geology. No pets allowed.
