Lanphier Canyon - Blue River Loop

#1

I’ll be heading out to do the Lanphier Canyon-Blue River loop in a few weeks. Located through sections of the Blue Range Primitive Area, Apache & Sitgreaves National Forests, AZ/NM it looks like a fairly challenging trail.

We have all our maps, as recommended, as I understand the trail is poorly marked in some sections.

Any information on water sources, camping spots, or lookouts to visit would be appreciated.

4 days, 31 miles, 4,947 ft loop seems quite doable. Looking forward to trailing my gear in slightly colder weather than we get back home.
