Apache Trail

Posted by Richard Cleaver (Toronto, Canada) on 10 April 2007 in Landscape & Rural and Portfolio.

The Apache Trail, or AZ 88 as it is officially known, links Apache Junction at the edge of the Greater Phoenix area with Globe via Theodore Roosevelt Lake, through the Superstition Mountains and the Tonto National Forest; 40 miles of steep, winding and mostly unpaved road past magnificent scenery of twisted igneous mountains with dense forests of saguaro and ferocactus, and several deep blue lakes. I took this picture of the Theodore Roosevelt Dam which is at the end of the unpaved portion of the road.
