Coconino National Forest

The Red Rocks of Sedona are in Coconino National Forest

The 1,856,038 acres of Coconino National Forest are divided (sort of) into 4 distinct districts: Peaks, Mogollon Rim, Mormon Lake and Red Rocks.
The Peaks District is that area mostly north of Flagstaff: the Volcanic Highlands-Kachina Peaks area. The San Francisco Volcanic Field and the highest point in Arizona are here.
The Mormon Lake District spans from the southern reaches of the Peaks District south to where Upper and Lower Mary Lakes meet, still on the Mogollon Plateau and north of the Rim. Mormon Lake is the largest natural lake in Arizona and this area is where most of the wild elk in the state hang out.
The Mogollon Rim District is that area where the Colorado Plateau drops up to 2,000' down into the Desert Canyon Country of central Arizona. This is an area of rugged countryside and huge views, where the vegetation makes the change from evergreen forests to cactus and ocotillo.
The Red Rock District is the southwestern part of Coconino National Forest, that area in central Arizona below the Mogollon Rim around Sedona and Oak Creek. This area is classed as a "high impact recreational area" and the Forest Service has instituted a "pass" program for users of this area. It is permissible for folks to stop and stretch or take a couple of photos, but if you stop in any one place for more than 15 minutes save yourself the problem: pay the $5 fee for the daily pass (longer term passes are available, too).

Coconino National Forest contains some of the most varied and sought-after countryside in Arizona: from the highest point to some of the lowest points. The vegetation varies from high alpine tundra through aspen and spruce to Ponderosa to pinon and cedar to sagebrush and creosote bush to cactus and ocotillo. From the Arizona Snowbowl to Sedona's Red Rock Country, there's a bit of almost everything here.
Scattered through the Forest you'll also come across a number of archaeological sites: some protected as National Monuments, State Parks, etc., some not. Federal and State laws are in place to try to preserve and prevent the disturbance of these historical and cultural sites, hopefully saving them for future generations to enjoy. You'll also come across old homesteads, stage stops, mine sites, railroad beds, logging camps, cow camps and other remains from more modern visitors to this countryside. For that matter, there's even an old road (now part of the trail system) that leads to the top of the Kachina Peaks (folks used to be able to drive their Model T's up there).

Campgrounds
Below is an alphabetical listing of the developed campgrounds on Coconino National Forest. Most campsites in these campgrounds (but not the group sites) are designed to accommodate up to 8 people with one vehicle. Some sites have room for a second vehicle, but an extra vehicle charge may apply. If you find dead or downed wood around your campsite, it is legal to cut and burn that in your campfire, but do not pack that wood up and take it out of the Forest with you (you need a firewood-gathering permit for that and those usually apply only in special areas).
If you prefer primitive camping to the developed kind, you can camp almost anywhere on Coconino National Forest except where "No Camping" is posted. However, there are still certain guidelines to be followed:
- The maximum stay limit is 14 days in any 30-day period. In some posted areas the stay limit is less.
- There is no camping or campfires allowed anywhere within any city limits.
- Unless you have the owner's explicit permission, stay off private property.
- Do not camp within 1/4 mile of any natural or man-made wildlife or stock watering tank or hole.
- Where primitive camping is allowed be at least 1 mile from any designated pay campground or recreation area, or as posted
- Don't be camping or driving on any open meadowland.
- You can use any dead or downed firewood you find around your campsite but do not load that wood into your vehicle and leave the Forest with it, unless you have a valid firewood-gathering permit.
- If you must have a campfire, be aware of the responsibility that goes with that. Use established fire rings, fire pans or build a fire mound. Keep the fire small, and make sure it is dead out before you go anywhere. (I remember a 400,000+ acre fire a few years ago on the Coconino and Apache-Sitgreaves, because someone was stupid and irresponsible...)
- Be at least 200 feet from any main roadway, at least 20 feet from any forest road, and if there's a right-of-way fence, be on the other side of that.
- Pack it in, Pack it out. Leave no trace.
- Use a "cat hole" and bury your waste and your pet's waste properly.
The Red Rocks District prohibits primitive camping, dispersed camping, "Camping on your Own," anywhere within the "pink-salmon" colored area on this map. If you want to camp in this area, you must be in a designated campground area.

Trails

Contained below is a list of some of the trails available on the Coconino National Forest, broken down by ranger district. This is not an exhaustive list, just a list of some of the more popular trails for hiking, horseback riding and mountain biking. Some are segments of much longer trails, like the General Crook Trail and the Arizona Trail. Some are combinations of trails that work together as loops. Some of these trails either are fully in Wilderness or cross Wilderness, so Wilderness Rules and Regulations apply to those sections of the trails (particularly the part about no mechanized vehicles including mountain bikes allowed). There's enough here to keep someone busy for more than few days...
