Above: Woods Canyon Lake is the most popular outdoor recreation area in Arizona.

Above: Spectaular views await you all along the Mogollon Rim.

Above: Don't be surprised if you get the chance to see the local wildlife just outside your campsite. This elk took his 2 hour midday snooze just behind my campsite as I set up camp with my dog.

Fishing on the Mogollon Rim lakes offers a chance to land a nice rainbow trout.
