AZ - Saddle Mountain
![](https://coopandellie.com/content/images/2021/02/Screen-Shot-2021-02-24-at-3.57.04-PM.png)
Description: Free, primitive camping in the shadow of Saddle Mountain. Could be difficult to find the entrance at night.
Nearby ranch offers potable water and dumping for $15 total at the time of our stay.
There is a trail to the summit of the mountain. I attempted a summit without doing any research on the trail and did not take the correct route. I later found a fantastic post about how to summit Saddle Mountain. If we return to this site, I'd love another go at it.
