EXPLORE THE WHITE MOUNTAINS

There's a widely held and oversimplified image of Arizona that suggests our state has only one season, and that our environment is little more than searing heat and sand dunes. Like most stereotypes, this one is without merit. It doesn't hold water. What does hold water is the White Mountains. Big Lake, Crescent Lake, the Black River, the White River, the Blue River... there's water everywhere. And there are forests, too, and mountains and meadows and monsoon storms. In our ongoing effort to dispel erroneous stereotypes, we present the White Mountains of Arizona. Enjoy the weather.
