Sierra Ancha, Arizona
Rising from low Sonoran Desert near Roosevelt Lake to pine-covered
high country, the 7,694-foot-tall Sierra Ancha
remains one of Arizona’s
less-visited sky islands. I discovered the rugged range in the 1990s
while hunting for 700-year-old Native American cliff dwellings to write
about for my book Ruins Seldom Seen, but these days I visit the
beautifully wild mountains just to hike around and do photography.
A couple of these photos show Four Peaks, which is about
25 miles to the south in the Mazatzal Mts.
