Bear Flat Campground, Mogollon Rim Mountains, Arizona   My fiance and I spent a crisp 14 degree night at bear flats, it was absolutely breath taking. The sound of running water washing over the rocks, tall pines, sheer cliffs and at night you would not believe how many stars you could see. We have camped all over in the state of Arizona and this is one of our top three choices. Great place for the kids with the water, small little pools that are not so deep.
