Just can't get enough of the Mogollon Rim Mountains. There's so much to do here at Big Lake that you need to camp here for a while, Gabaldon Campground is a wonderful place for that, and dry warm beds await you at Americas Best Value Inn-Springerville. Don't try to stop me, cause I'm havin' a nice time here at Big Lake. After a long day outdoors Best Western Sunrise Inn is a good location to spend a night or two, and you can go for a hike on the KP Trail Seventy.
