Camping at Pinal Peak
Scott, Jake and I went tent camping at the Pinal Recreation Area on Saturday, August 2. We visited the Besh Ba Gowah Indian Ruins in Globe, AZ before heading 15 miles through mountainous wilderness (on a bumpy dirt road carved out along the mountain sides) to achieve the peak of the Pinal mountain range, where the campsites are located.
We didn’t get much sleep that night. Some campers nearby partied loudly until midnight. Then the wind picked up, noisily rattling our tent. Just when we might drift off to sleep, Jake woke up and thought… playtime! We were pretty sleep deprived on Sunday, but the trip was still completely worth it!
Our next camping adventure will be in our new All Terrain Camper, which should be delivered in 2-3 weeks – yay!!
