June 29th, 11:23 AM — July 1st, 12:00 AM

The Arizona Department of Environmental Quality (ADEQ) has issued an Ozone High Pollution Advisory for Flagstaff on Monday and Tuesday due to the influence of the Pocket Fire. This means that forecast weather conditions combined with existing ozone levels are expected to result in local maximum 8-hour ozone concentrations that pose a health risk. Adverse health effects increase as air quality deteriorates. Ozone is an air contaminant which can cause breathing difficulties for children, older adults, as well as persons with respiratory problems. A decrease in physical activity is recommended. You are urged to car pool, telecommute, or use mass transit. The use of gasoline-powered equipment should be reduced or done late in the day. For details on this High Pollution Advisory, visit the ADEQ internet site at www.azdeq.gov/forecast/flagstaff or call 602-771-2300.

About

White Horse Lake is an extremely popular fishing destination located 19 miles southeast of Williams in northern Arizona's Kaibab National Forest. The campground sits at 6,600 feet elevation, surrounded by ponderosa pine forest with abundant wildlife including deer and elk. Anglers target Largemouth Bass, Crappie, and Bluegill, and a small paved boat ramp accommodates watercraft with electric motors up to 10 HP. The campground offers 94 single-unit sites with picnic tables, fire rings, grills, and tent pads, plus 10 double sites and a large group site accommodating up to 60 people. Sites can handle tents, trailers, and motorhomes up to 38 feet. Twenty-two sites are wheelchair accessible. Approximately half of sites are reservable via Recreation.gov while the remainder are first-come, first-served. Summer temperatures range from 50°F at night to 80-90°F during the day. Monsoon thunderstorms are common in July and August. The Bear Shack on-site provides beverages and snacks. Grand Canyon National Park's South Rim is just over an hour north, making this an excellent base camp for exploring the region.
