Mt. Trumbull is centered in the Uinkaret Mountains, just north of the Grand Canyon. The area contains basalt flows and cinder cones draped with ponderosa pine, pinyon pine, and juniper. Tassel-eared Kaibab squirrels and wild turkeys are abundant. There are opportunities to hike the Mt. Trumbull Trail, take a scenic drive, see wildlife, visit historic sites, and appreciate the beauty of the Mount Trumbull Wilderness Area.
