Mogollon Moment - Back in the Green

Back in the Green! The northern half of Tonto National Forest, as seen from the 'Military Sinkhole' Vista atop Arizona's Mogollon Rim. Military Sinkhole Vista is a TH for the historic General Crook Trail. It was a major supply route for military forts during the "Apache Wars' of the 1800s. In late September 1874, the first wagon train crossed this trail. At that time, a journey from San Francisco, CA, to Fort Apache in eastern AZ usually lasted at least two full months. Photographer's Note: When I say, "back in the green," I mean OUT of the bloomin' hot desert, and INTO the cool green forest! May 29, 2008
