Of all the areas
to visit, travelers would be hard-pressed to find a region that
offers more - more natural beauty, more history and culture,
more recreation, more adventure, more memories - than Arizona's
White Mountains.
Here, sunny skies and four classic seasons enhance a variety of
activities. In winter visitors can enjoy sledding or tobogganing,
snow boarding, ice-fishing, and, of course, world-class downhill
skiing and cross-country skiing. Miles of groomed
trails and first-rate facilities draw enthusiasts from around
the world.
Spring,
too, is a special time. Frozen lakes and streams open themselves
to fishermen (some of the best fishing of the year can be found
in spring) boaters, hikers and sightseer's. Meadow grasses
turn green and wildflowers dot the landscape. As the
earth rejuvenates, so does the spirit.
In
summer, with stubborn patches of gleaming snows still clinging
to her summits, the White Mountains offer visitors a variety of
scenic attractions and an unlimited array of outdoor activities.
Some 50 alpine lakes and 800 miles of cold, crystal clear rivers
and springs draw visitors throughout the season to this mountain
playground.
Autumn
is for many their favorite season, when the land and its inhabitants
prepare for the coming snows. The White Mountains offer a change
of colors to rival any in the nation, with the added pleasure
of relative solitude. Wildlife is abundant, trails are
not crowded.
Hunters and fishermen enjoy spectacular sport, hiking and sightseeing
are at their best.
In
the White Mountains, whatever the season, whatever
your interest, it's
always the right time to visit and you
are always welcome!
