    Camping in Kaibab Forest
    More than 150,000 visitors stay at the developed campgrounds of the forest each year. Cataract Lake, Dogtown Lake, Kaibab Lake, and White Horse Lake campgrounds are operated under Forest Service Permit by Southwest Recreation.

    Fishing in Kaibab Forest
    All streams located on the Williams Ranger District are intermittent (i.e., flow only part of the year) and are not suitable for sport fishing. Fishing here occurs at lakes, many of which have developed campgrounds nearby. Some people do fish at a few of the larger tanks, including J. D. Dam, Perkins, Hells Canyon and Bar Cross Tanks. With the exception of J. D. Dam, all these are warm water fisheries.

    Historic Sites in Kaibab Forest
    Most archeological remains on the Kaibab National Forest south of Grand Canyon are between 1,200 and 850 years old, a period when people lived in semi-subterranean pit houses and stone houses, made pottery, and grew crops. The Cohonina culture was most prominent in what is now the Williams area. The Kayenta Anasazi shared the south rim of the Grand Canyon with the Cohonina. Both cultures first appeared in about AD 700 and disappeared, for unknown reasons, by about AD 1150.

    Wildlife in Kaibab Forest
    In the late afternoon and early evening, or during the early hours of the morning, you stand your best chance of catching a glimpse of some of the many different wild birds and animals that live on the Kaibab National Forest. These are prime feeding and watering times for elk, deer, antelope, turkey, hawks, owls, bear, bobcat, eagles, and javelina, all of which can be seen in some parts of the Forest.

    Sycamore Canyon Wilderness Area
    The Sycamore Canyon Wilderness borders the forest on the south. Much of this area is in the Coconino National Forest, but parts of it also lie within the Prescott and Kaibab National Forests. Access is available from the north, south and east. The Sycamore Rim Trail follows the Mogollon Rim along the northern border of the Wilderness. This 11-mile trail is roughly circular, passing through the natural areas of Pomeroy Tanks, the Lily Ponds and Sycamore Canyon Vista.
