Hawley Lake is an American 300-acre (120 ha) lake and place in east-central Arizona, in the White Mountain Apache Indian Reservation, and has an elevation of 8,200 feet (2,500 m).[1]
The lake is a remnant of Pliocene volcanism on the Mogollon Rim[2] but it has been artificially extended as a reservoir for downstream irrigation plus trout and ice fishing (though an $9 tribal licence is required to fish on the reservation). The camphost Bill Kee has been part of this recreation facility for nearly 25 years. Its popularity as a recreational area is enhanced by a nearby ski resort.
