If it's anywhere near Crown King itself, it's somewhere I shouldn't be in the first place haha

That SHOULD be Ok. We had huge storms last night so I would wait a couple weeks. And then you should go with a 4X in case something happens and you need a pull.
Alright, so I've started my own little planning thread for this drive for anyone that's interested! https://www.overlandbound.com/forums/threads/arizona-lake-pleasant-trail-planning.9126/

Hi Guys-
New to the forum. I'm a medical resident, will be interviewing for pulmonary/critical care fellowship at University of Arizona on Friday, Sept 9. I have 4 days to get there from Santa Fe, hoping to do some overlanding/camping on my own during the week. I'm in a 4WD Excursion (hauls the family to the backcountry, though they won't be joining me this time), and not willing to tackle anything overly challenging as I will be on my own.
I've done some Googling but can't seem to find a good route in eastern Arizona/western New Mexico for overland/backcountry camping. Any suggestions would be much appreciated.
Thanks,
Watson

I can plan if you still want. If you have it under control it is a great learning exercise.
I'm not opposed to some assistance! I'm looking into extending the route right now. I've got other groups interested, as well, but I've got that handled. Mostly, it's that I want to avoid areas that aren't beginner/intermediate friendly in regards to terrain navigation. Lockers, winch, etc shouldn't be necessary but are always good to have. I can PM more info if you'd like but I don't want to impose! I -will- be taking a drive out there myself, with a well-equipped friend, to survey and map a good route, as well.
Go ahead and plan what you would like, then we can run it in my truck to make sure it is friendly.
Hey guys, I'm Steven. I'm in North Phoenix. I am currently saving for my first overland vehicle.

Glad to have you! Even if you don't have a rig, you're still part of the community, so you're still welcome to events, meets, everything!
There's a monthly meet that someone is trying to plan, but last I checked there was no set date yet? And I'm planning a beginner's trail crawl of sorts, on October 1st! If you have anything with ground clearance, you'll be able to do this (so you don't have to have an overland rig)

I feel like I keep throwing links at you, but here's another one to join. There is a Meetup group called AZ Overlanders (https://www.meetup.com/AZ-Overlanders/) which is separate from Overland Bound, but many of the members are also Overland Bound members. We try to have a meetup once a month, but the main organizer (@1Louder) is in the midst of building and moving into a new house, so there likely won't be any events until October or so. I'm also out on the trails (Zion trip, OB OTG 17, and possibly the OB Southwest Meetup) for the next 6-8 weeks. When I get done with all that madness I'll be putting together a Southern Arizona meetup and/or trip as well

Oh yeah, and as @PanthurBRZ mentioned, there's a monthly meetup being planned by @ZJ GRIZZLY but I can't find the thread at the moment

Hey guys, I'm new here. I live in Seville (Higley & Riggs in Gilbert), just got a new Jeep, and would love to hit some trails.
