Fire Ban Beginning May 26, 2009!
This includes banning the use of all campfires, fire pits, and charcoal grills.
It is acceptable to use gas/propane grills in designated areas.

Welcome to Usery Mountain Regional Park.

Located on the Valley’s east side, this park takes in 3,648 acres set at the western end of the Goldfield Mountains, adjacent to the Tonto National Forest. The park contains a large variety of plants and animals that call the lower Sonoran Desert home. Along the most popular feature of the park, the Wind Cave Trail, water seeps from the roof of the alcove to support hanging gardens of Rock Daisy. The Wind Cave is formed at the boundary between the volcanic tuff and granite on Pass Mountain. Breathtaking views from this 2,840-foot elevation are offered to all visitors.

The Stargazing for Everyone Program will be offered at Usery Mountain Regional Park...
