    AZ > Long Valley Campground > Sept 16-20 > 9th Annual Fall Hang 2023

    Welcome to our 9th Annual Fall Hang!!!

    We'll be nestled under the towering Ponderosa pines located at the Long Valley Work Center Group Campground near Clints Well up on the Mogollon Rim. Due to high demand, most of the weekends and times we like are not available so we had to adjust the dates. The site will be available from Saturday, September 16th at 2 PM, to Wednesday, September 20th at 12 PM. Whether you would like to join us for a day, a night, or the whole enchilada, we would love to see you.

    The Long Valley Work Center Group Campground is located in the cool pines of the Coconino National Forest at 6950 ft and has:
    5+ private wooded acres = lots of trees
    3 pedestal grills
    A group fire pit
    10 picnic tables
    Vault toilets for up to 50 people
    Close access to hiking trails, sightseeing, wildlife viewing, and Blue Ridge Reservoir
    Trash service

    There is still no water so make sure that you bring enough.

    If you plan to attend please let us know to expect you.
    If you would like to prepare a meal for breakfast or dinner, please let us know. I'll keep a track of whos preparing what for which day and which meal they chose.
    The site cost $348 for the four nights. I will not be asking anyone for money but donations will be welcomed.
    The hang has been family-friendly for the past eight years.

    There are two main ways to enter the campsite from Highway 87:
    Traveling from the southside (Payson) of the campground:
    Head north on Highway 87
    Turn right onto FR 147 and then immediately left onto FR 147A
    Follow this for a while, eventually you'll see the campground on your right

    Traveling from the northside (Flagstaff) of the campground:
    Head south on Highway 87
    Turn left onto FR 141 (About one mile from Clints Well, which has the famous Mustang Gas Station sign.)
    You travel this to the fork and turn right onto FR 147A (This might say something other than FR147A, just turn right at the fork.)
    Follow this for a bit and the campground will be on your left

    The forest roads are well graded though expect some wear/tear & weathering. The entrance to the campground was regraded last year turning that bumping ride into a smooth landing. Fear not, my mighty Prius has traversed many of these roads in worse shape, so your car no matter how small or large will easily make it.

    Historical Weather:
    Highs - 65
    Lows - 34
    For up-to-date weather goto: https://forecast.weather.gov/MapClic...&lon=-111.3178

    We have happily had dogs each year at the hang, if you have questions, here's the official policy per the Coconino National Forest.

    I've got a trial at that time, but they tend to settle last minute. I've got the dates on the calendar and will be there if possible.

    I have been absent the last few years, but I would love to come back and see everyone. Glad to see that it is still being held.
