Show Low was named by the turn of a Card. A ranch of nearly 100,000 acres jointly owned by Marion Clark and Croydon Cooley a U.S. army scout. According to legend, sometime around 1876, the partners decided that there was not enough room for both of them
and one of them should leave. They decided to settle this issue over a game of "Seven Up" (with the winner taking the ranch and the loser leaving.) After the game seemed to have no winner in sight the game reached it's climax when
Clark said, "If you can show low, you win." At this point
Cooley turned up the deuce of clubs, and declared "Show Low" it is! Show Low
is a city in Navajo County, Arizona
among the lush green ponderosa pine forestland and along Arizona's Mogollon Rim at an elevation of 6,345 feet. Show Low is now the largest city in the White Mountains of northeastern Arizona. Show Low is also the business hub and marketing center of the area.

and one of them should leave. They decided to settle this issue over a game of "Seven Up" (with the winner taking the ranch and the loser leaving.) After the game seemed to have no winner in sight the game reached it's climax when
Clark said, "If you can show low, you win." At this point
Cooley turned up the deuce of clubs, and declared "Show Low" it is! Show Low
is a city in Navajo County, Arizona
among the lush green ponderosa pine forestland and along Arizona's Mogollon Rim at an elevation of 6,345 feet. Show Low is now the largest city in the White Mountains of northeastern Arizona. Show Low is also the business hub and marketing center of the area.

Ken has an amazing, secluded site! We didn't have any neighbors so it made it especially private which just added to the feeling of being "out there". The wide open views and clear skies were exactly what my family and I needed to have a nice get away.

Beautiful wide open space. We were the only campers there. The horseshoes and corn hole setup was another plus. We did get a little turned around trying to find the place, but the clear campground signage helped. Extra tarps for wind proofing are recommended if there are any winds, but otherwise a great place to camp. We would love to camp here again.

So peaceful and beautiful! The "Petrified Forest Hideaway" sign has fallen, so keep an eye low to the ground for the right turn off.

Definitely private and quiet. The kids loved the wide open spaces and few lawn games that were there. The picnic table was great and we took advantage of the fire pit. The road is a little tricky to get down with a camper, but we took it slow and had no trouble.

Incredible place to make camp for the night and wake up. A little bit off of the main highway, but Ken gives great accessible directions if you are coming after sun set. Campsite is perfect and making dinner over the great fire pit was very easy. The little set up he has is perfect. Great to wake up and have short ride to the petrified forest. What a great place to stay.
