Aubrey Peak Wilderness

Description:

The Aubrey Peak Wilderness (15,400 acres) in Arizona is managed by the Bureau of Land Management. In 1990, the Aubrey Peak Wilderness became part of the now over 109 million acre National Wilderness Preservation System established by the Wilderness Act of 1964. In wilderness, you can enjoy challenging recreational activities and extraordinary opportunities for solitude. Please follow the regulations in place for this area, and use Leave No Trace techniques when visiting to ensure protection of its unique natural and experiential qualities. How to follow the seven standard Leave No Trace principles differs in different parts of the country (desert vs. Rocky Mountains). Click on any of the principles listed below to learn more about how they apply. www.lnt.org/programs/principles.php Water is very scarce, only occurring in potholes following rainstorms, which should always be purified. No hiking trails exist in this wilderness. The summer climate is harsh, with temperatures in the daytime often exceeding 100 degrees.
