Serving Nature and Our Community
WMNC is your gateway to enjoying and understanding the ecology of the beautiful White Mountains region of Arizona.
In the White Mountains, diversity abounds as you climb from grasslands that are home to speedy pronghorn, through the world’s largest stand of ponderosa pine teeming with forest-dependent wildlife to windswept alpine tundra atop Mount Baldy (Arizona's second-highest point at 11,420 ft). Mount Baldy's slopes are the headwaters for four major rivers that nourish rich streamside riparian habitats, fisheries, and the state’s thirsty human population.
Established in 2005, we are rapidly gaining momentum in completing our vision. For more information about our organization, see About Us. For information about upcoming events, see our event calendar.
