Explore AZ : August 19th – 21st : Payson, AZ

By Derek Neighbors on August 7, 2011

So back in 2009 I talked about starting ExploreAZ tweetups. I did get the RV out one time in 2010 shortly after that post to Catalina State Park outside of Tucson. After putting some money into the RV and getting it operational again considering starting this back up. So I have booked two trips.

Ponderosa Campground Payson Arizona

The first trip is Friday August 19th – Sunday August 21st in Payson, Arizona. We will be at the Ponderosa Campground. It has both tent and trailer camping available. We have room for a tent in our campground if you want to avoid the tent fee and just pay a $7.00 vehicle fee.

Horton Creek Falls (Velvia Edit)

We will likely take a hike through Horton Creek (3.5 Miles of easy trail). Open to other ideas. Family friendly camping. Will be plenty of beer drinking and bbq as well. Please let me know if you are going. If you want to just come up for a day hike that works well too!
