Point of Pines, Arizona and Surrounding Areas on the
San Carlos Apache Reservation Point of Pines is a "populated place" hidden in the
Natanes Mountains on the
San Carlos Apache Reservation in Arizona. Actually, other than a ranch house
or two,
there's very little to see. However, the region surrounding Point of Pines is a great
place
to explore with not only pine forests but also juniper
trees,
expansive grasslands,
rugged
cliffs and other things you'd expect to find at the "low edge
of the high country." Point
of Pines Lake is also nearby. What the beautiful little reservoir lacks in size
it
makes up
for with its remote, less-visited environment and ample wildlife
including deer,
turkeys, ospreys, great blue herons and black bears.
