Arizona Road Trip To MAJESTIC White Mountains

In this Arizona road trip we head up to the White Mountains in Northern Arizona. We show you the drive up US 60 from Top of the World up to Globe-Miami through the Salt River Canyon until we reach Show Low. From Show Low we go to Pinetop Lakeside and then onto the Sunrise ski area before arriving at the ultimate location of Greer. The weather in the White Mountains during the summer is typically in the 70's or mid 80's. But very cold up here at night even if it is 115 degrees down in the Phoenix area.

Living in Arizona is quite a unique experience because of the vastness that the state offers. From the Sonoran Desert in the south to the high country in the north all the way up towards the Four Corners east and the Grand Canyon in the west. Known as the Grand Canyon state, Arizona is diverse in many ways. The state tree is the Palo Verde, the state cactus is the Saguaro, the state bird is the Cactus wren.

Watching from central Florida. Plan to drive out to AZ in January 2021 (if the country hasn't been burned to the ground by then). Such a beautiful state AZ is, as well as other states in that area. Looking forward to this trip, since I just retired 7 days ago. Yay! :)

I moved from Scottsdale, AZ to Lakeside, AZ in 2019 and couldn't be happier. Lakeside has four seasons, clean air, great hiking and nice people. It's also not that expensive compared to Sedona and Flagstaff. It also is quieter with lot's less people than Prescott, Sedona and Flagstaff. Lakeside, AZ is a small rural Arizona gem of a town.

I lived in Payson for a year. Not only are Payson and star valley gorgeous .. buy within a 20 minute drive of Payson there are COUNTLESS secret spots that only locals seem to go to. I know a place down in the Verde that had 10 hidden waterfalls.. one has a 10 ft chute.. a hole in the granite hill top.. that you can climb straight down into.. like going down a manhole in granite.. And you LITERALLY end up in a cave BEHIND a giant 60 ft waterfall. Of you look at the falls from out front you have no idea there is even a cave BEHIND the water.. it's magical...

Thanks for sharing! I've gotten to call pinetop-lakeside and rainbow lake my home for almost my entire life and wouldn't change it for anything! Some tips for visitors: 1. Shop and eat local! It's the best you can find and helps out the locals. 2. Don't rush. If you are impatient to the people around you, it's clear that you're a visitor and it's a good way to get people to not like you. 3. Leave it as you found it and take all your trash and belongings. 4. The further from Show Low you go, the less "city amenities" you'll have. 5. There's no "resort" in the typical sense anywhere in the area, but plenty of lovely cabins, hotels, b&B's, and rentals. 6. If a local directs you to "the deuce", it's the main road in downtown show low. Hon-dah is pronounced like the car and is where "the rez" starts.

My fave place in az is the white mountain apache rez. Native antelope, eagles, elk, beavers, split tail hawks.. everywhere. Beautiful clear lakes teeming with rainbow and apache trout. It's magical there. Like a setting from Lord of the rings.And a heads up... everyone fishes at horseshoe Seneca lake because it's always well stocked.. but right up the road there is a TINY lake called bog pond. And in 1998 I caught a near record trout there. Twice as big as any I ever caught from the big lakes.

My grandparents lived in PHX but had a summer home in Pinetop. My sister and I were so sad when my aunts sold it to collect their inheritance, but my husband and I make campground reservations in Show Low and at Big Lake a couple of times a year. We can't afford a "summer home," but we can afford a travel trailer! Love being in Arizona! We often talk about selling our home in Chino Valley and moving to Show Low full-time, but you pay "resort" prices up there, and until I retire, I have to be within commuting distance to GD PHX. Grrr!

OK this got to me I researched a little. Mc Nary was the area where the train in the 60s took excursions up the hill. James McNary transferred thousands of Louisiana black folks to Az. and hired Indians on a company store town of timber processing and shipping on his spur to the east west connection. Gramps was rail lawyer nearly half century and the old steam train was the last breath of the dying era . I dont recall the name of the outfit . Apache Excursion Railway maybe or how long it ran but I was a passenger.
