Woodchute Wilderness
Located in the Prescott National Forest in Arizona.
This small wilderness offers reltively easy access and spectacular views of the san Francisco Peaks and
panoramic vistas of central Arizona. Created in 1984, the 5,700 acres that comprise the Woodchute
Wilderness range in elevation from 5,500 feet to 7,800 feet. Ponderosa pine is the dominate overstory
species located at the upper elevations which gradually changes to pinion pine and Utah juniper at the
lower and relatively drier elevations.
There are maintained wilderness trails and public access points currently in existence. It is recommended
that topographic maps be studied prior to a visit.
