The wind singing through the tops of tall pines is one of the most relaxing sounds known to mankind. FR 144 serves as a gateway to some of the plentiful camping and offroading opportunities found among the tall Ponderosa pines of the Coconino National Forest. The higher elevation and cooler temperatures make the area a popular summer getaway. Campsites along FR 144 vary from spacious open sites suitable for larger rigs and trailers to cozy, secluded sites along the various spur trails. Pushing beyond the gateway of FR 144 leads deeper and deeper into the vast Arizona high country where remote campsites and even more adventure can be found. Go listen to that relaxing wind in the tall treetops. The experience does a body good.
