Bismarck Lake is a good water source close to the Arizona Trail. The view from here towards Humphreys Peak is spectacular! A great place to take a break or spend the night. There was even a little bit of (silty) water left in late September.

"Located off FR 151 (Hart Prairie Road) on the west flank of the San Francisco Peaks. Bismarck Lake Trail is 1.5 miles long and terminates into the Arizona National Scenic Trail to the east. Bismarck Lake is an important water source for wildlife in the area but is often dry during the driest months of the year. The trail and lake are located in a large meadow and have excellent views of the San Francisco Peaks. It is at an elevation of approximately 8500'. It's about 3 miles northwest of Snowbowl..."

So, most of the time the lake is a glorified puddle, but the views are spectacular all around. 📷👍😎

Bismarck Lake is a large, natural watering hole for much of the wildlife in the area. Located just west of the Arizona Trail, this lake is frequented by a number of visitors covering various routes. The lake, itself, makes for a great climax for a day hike or even just a fun pitstop for a snack or lunch during a longer trek.
