Baldy Wilderness, Winn Campground also attracts hikers. Mount Baldy tops out at 11,420 feet and is the tallest peak in Arizona's White Mountains.Facilities
The facility provides 63 campsites, including some that can accommodate RVs or tents, others are for tents only and two group sites can accommodate up to 50 people each. The group sites are especially popular with scout groups and family reunions.
Due to water restrictions, RVs must arrive with their water tanks already filled. Water is available at Big Lake, just 10 miles away if needed. Limited drinking water is available at the campground. Firewood can be purchased on-site.Natural Features
Winn Campground is situated in a thick pine and aspen forest at an elevation of 8,500 feet near Lee Valley and Big Lake. Several smaller lakes are located within a short drive. From the campground, visitors can take in scenic views of the surrounding White Mountains. Some campsites border a large meadow where elk are often seen at twilight.
Summer temperatures can be very pleasant because of the elevation. However, the rainy season often brings afternoon thunderstorms from late June through August. Visitors should come prepared for rain and cool nighttime temperatures.
