Bear Hide: Homestead Ruins, Bear Sign & a Hole in the Rock Nobody Can Explain
Bear Hide in the Tonto National Forest near Payson holds more than the map suggests — homestead ruins still standing in the pines, a hole in the rock nobody has explained, wild blackberries, bear sign on every visit and a canyon trail leading toward the Hellsgate Wilderness. We have been back three times and still haven't found everything.
