Ridge Valley Ranch

Description

36 acres in the high desert with a view of the White Mountains and Windsor Valley. The back of the property has a drop off which gives you an open view for miles around. The property is surrounded by juniper and pinon pine.

There is a gravel driveway into the property but there are no designated pads or places to set up camp.

There is good cell service with all 3 major carriers and limited WiFi is also available. There is sometimes potable water available but in a limited amount.

There is firewood available and plenty of rock to make fire rings.

This is a dark sky area so you can get some great stargazing and astrophotography.

Located 3.5 miles from the paved highway, 20 miles outside of Show Low, and 45 miles from the Petrified Forest

Juniper and dark skies

Found this initially on Boondockers Welcome and double checked on The Dyrt. Directions and map were clearer on The Dyrt. We missed a crucial turn and wandered around for an hour on narrow, rocky gravel roads before Lew could talk us through the route. I guess I’m not as good at reading a map or directions as I thought I was.

Lew has a gorgeous property with plenty of sites of all sizes but only two “developed.” We were told to feel free to find a spot that felt good and to clear rocks to make a fire pit if we wished. We decided to set up in “Site 2” which was extra roomy and easily accommodated our 41’ fifth wheel. Lew is in the process of clearing undergrowth and there’s lots of wood available for fires. However, it has been an extremely dry winter, so be judicious, as it does get windy up here on the ridge.

This is definitely off grid — no power, no water and no dump station. Verizon was 2 bars reliably and occasionally 3. WiFi was excellent.

Thanks for booking with us and I hope you enjoyed your visit. Wanted people to know that a turn-by-turn map was provided to help insure people are able to get to the site. Missing the turn on 8001 is what caused your issue probably. Happy journeys!
