Coronado National Forest

If you think southern Arizona is nothing but parched desert, think again.

Sunset from a higher spot.. so many wild flowers at the end of summer. Monsoon storms hit this part of the mountain hard, so put you tent on high ground and be prepared to wait it out. The clouds also envelope the whole mountain, leaving you in thick fog.

Each spot has a large stone fire pit. These are built and maintained by campers. There is no use fee, so as always, super important to pack out everything you bring in, and keep it beautiful for all of us.

Camping on the edge of an old foundation. Pretty steep drop at this spot, there is another large spot close to here that's a little less 'on the edge' 
Larger spot has two fire rings, more tree cover

On the road from Portal, a half mile from the campground.
