Excerpt from Arizona's ForestsArizona's landforms and climate are a study in extremes. They range from the hot, ¿at desert of the south, on which snow rarely falls, to the -foot high place of the snows as the San Francisco Peaks near Flagstaff were known to the Hopi In dians. North of the desert lie the foothills and low mountains of central Arizona. This rugged topography rises in elevation north ward and ends abruptly at the Mogollon Rim, a great escarpment running diagonally in a northwesterly direction across the center of the State. Beyond this rim romanticized in the writings of Zane Grey as the Tonto Rim the land ¿attens out to a high plateau that encompasses most of the north ern half of the State. Arizona's forests are mostly found in a wide band along the rim.About the PublisherForgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.
