The beautiful surroundings attract many to the abundant outdoor activities, such as hunting, fishing, hiking and camping. It's a friendly mountain community, known for its many festivals and gatherings - the Spring Pro Rodeo, June Bug Blues, Loggers and Sawdust Festival and State Championship Fiddlers Contest are just a few. One adventure not to be missed is the Tonto Natural Bridge. It's the largest natural travertine bridge in the world, standing 183 feet high and over 400 feet long.
