The Apache and Sitgreaves National Forests encompass over two million acres of magnificent mountain country in east-central Arizona.

The Apache National Forest ranges in elevation from 3,500 feet to nearly 11,500 feet and is named for the tribes that settled in this area. The area from Mount Baldy east to Escudilla Mountain is often referred to as the White Mountains of Arizona.
