There are some good spots to boondock along Mule Creek Road (AZ 78) in the Apache - Sitgreaves National Forest between Guthrie AZ and the New Mexico border. Up at the New Mexico border is a nice level rest area that also makes a good spot to overnight.

The Bottom Line

...if you’re young, dear God, don’t try to live the way your parents did. You don’t need three bedrooms, although a roof is nice. Get the hell outa Dodge and stir things up. Leave! Adapt! Believe in yourself! Have fun! The bottom line is, do I have shelter and enough to eat. Everything else is optional. EVERYTHING! There are no rules!!! Just keep it simple: get that first bit down, no matter how, and you can get creative with the rest.
