MOUNT BALDY (ARIZONA)

'Mount Baldy' is a mountain in northeastern Arizona in the United States. It is the highest point in the White Mountains, making it the highest point in Apache County. It is the seventh highest point in the state after the six summits of the San Francisco Peaks near Flagstaff. With a summit 11,420 feet (3,480 meters) above sea level, the peak of Mount Baldy rises above the tree line and is left largely bare of vegetation, lending the mountain its name.^[1]
The summit of Mount Baldy is within the Fort Apache Indian Reservation and is technically off-limits to hikers without permission. An unnamed sub-peak with an elevation of 11,400 ft (3,745 m) exists approximately 0.5 miles (0.8 kilometers) to the north of the summit that is off reservation and accessible to the public via maintained trail.^[2]
