Escudilla Mountain and Lookout Tower
Escudilla Mountain rises to 10,912 feet and is the third-highest peak in Arizona. The 6.4-mile round-trip Escudilla National Recreation Trail passes through dense spruce-fir forest and leads to a historic fire lookout tower at the summit. The mountain is referenced in Aldo Leopold's writings as part of the early American conservation movement.
