Salt River Canyon

On this trip to Pinetop, I took the "back way" route 60 east through Globe and then north on route 77. About 45 miles out of Globe route 77 declines into the Salt River Canyon, crosses the Salt River, and then climbs back out. Over a length of 8 miles the road descends from 4800 ft. to 3500 ft. and then back up again, providing spectacular views. This is lterally Apache country, as the Salt River marks the boudary between Tribal Lands (Sovereign Nations within Arizona) of the San Carlos Apache Tribe and the White Mountain Apache Tribe.
