We've gone on several geocaching expeditions up on the Mogollon Rim.  We 
take Highway 87 north out of Payson, through Pine/Strawberry, and take 
the Rim Road/Forest Rd. 300 turnoff.  While up there we've seen people 
camping off of the forest service roads up there.  There's a small creek 
up there that runs (sometimes; I'm assuming only when it's rained or the 
snow is melting).  I'm not talking about a designated camping area 
(we've seen those, too).  The area I'm talking about would be just 
across the forest road from this cache: 
http://www.geocaching.com/seek/cache_details.aspx?wp=GCWN3P&Submit6=Go 
(GCWN3P if the link didn't work).

Does anyone know where I'm talking about?  If so, do you know how/where 
I would find out what I need to be able to legally camp there in terms 
of permits, etc.?  I know just because I saw other people doing it 
doesn't mean it was ok.  Also would like to know how to find out what 
fire bans may be in place.  I tried doing some Google searches, but 
could only seem to find information about specific campgrounds.

Any help would be greatly appreciated.  Just took a look at my cache log 
and it's been nearly 2 years since I logged a find.  Very, very sad.  I 
want to get the kids up to do some caching and camping this summer.

Thanks,
