White Mountain Apache Tribe now consists of approximately 16,000 Tribal members. Many live here on their Tribal lands, but others live and work all over the country and throughout world. Today, the People proudly retain their culture through language, songs and dance, and their ceremonies. Each Tribal member continue to originate from unique family clans. The clan system is still practiced today.
The White Mountain Apache reservation consists of 1.67 million acres (over 2,600 square miles) in east-central Arizona. It ranges in elevation from 2,600 feet in the Salt River Canyon on the southwest corner of the reservation to over 11,400 feet at the top of Mount Baldy, one of our sacred peaks. It includes some of the richest wildlife habitats in the state, and more than 400 miles of clean running rivers, streams, and over 26 lakes. It is home to the Apache Trout, a species brought back from the brink of extinction through the efforts of the Tribe and many partners. Through the Tribe’s Wildlife and Outdoor Recreation Division, many recreational opportunities are available on the reservation. The White Mountain Apache people are known world-wide for their Trophy Bull Elk hunting program. The People are blessed with pristine clean drinking water from its natural aquifers.
The tribe also owns and operates the Sunrise Park Resort and the Hon-Dah Casino. The resort is a year-round recreation destination and offers a wide range of outdoor activities. During the winter, the resort’s three mountains offer excellent alpine skiing. There are plenty of challenging runs for experienced skiers and an abundance of enjoyable intermediate runs. When Arizona experiences wet winters, which aren’t all too uncommon, Sunrise provides skiing as good as anywhere in the Southwest.
White Mountain Apache Cultural Center and Museum, originally established in 1969, stands as a monument to the Tribe’s historical resiliency and ongoing commitment to celebrate and perpetuate Apache heritage. The Cultural Center serves as a repository for the Tribe’s cultural heritage through the preservation of oral histories, archival materials and objects of cultural, historical and artistic significance to the White Mountain Apache people. A visit to the Culture Center also entitles visitation to the Fort Apache National Historic Park and Kineshba Ruins National Historic Landmark, also administered by the Tribe’s Heritage Program and located five miles west of Fort Apache.
Nestled in a small valley in the White Mountains of Arizona is the town of Greer, Arizona which is one of the highest towns in the US at an elevation of 8,300 feet. The Town is surrounded by the Apache-Sitgreaves National Forest which offers numerous recreational opportunities. Most visitors will enjoy walking down main street and stopping by the Butterfly Lodge. There is plenty to do and enjoy exploring the White Mountains.
