As far as I know, all fire restrictions are lifted. Camping in the
urban/interface region is regulated (only in designated campsites)
I'd call the FS ahead of time just in case 928-443-8000.
Peavine Trail is nice and easy, but not really a backpack experience.
Ken (Lincoln) may know of a better backpacking trail (an EASY ONE,
Ken!! :-). If all you need is a day hike, Peavine is great, scenic
(waterfowl), etc. Access off Prescott Lakes Pkwy and 89 near the
Humane Society.
Have fun!
