We started our adventure heading up to the western part of the Mogollon Rim (7000ft) located 135 miles north east of Phoenix,Az (1200ft). Our campsite located just north of a small town called Happy Jack. After a great campout with some friends we headed up to a trail called Chavez pass (http://www.multimap.com/maps/?zoom=13&countryCode=US&lat=34.78028&lon=-111.14083#map=34.78956,-111.21202|15|4&bd=useful_information&loc=US:38.8946:-77.0096:13||United States). We then came across a series of small lakes and stopped at one called Loon Lake for lunch. After lunch we headed back to the Hwy and was greeted with afternoon showers..nice if you live in the desert! On a scenic drive home we passed Morman lake which was almost all dried up and Murry Lake which was surprisingly quite large.
