Tips for birding Arizona Snowbowl
Parking at the Snow Bowl will place you high up in spruce/fir and aspen forest. Hart Prairie next to the parking area has bluebirds and sparrows. Green-tailed Towhees breed in brushy areas. Look for flyover Red Crossbills and Clark's Nutcrackers. This is the main access point for the trail to Humphreys Peak, the highest point in Arizona. The forest along the trail tends to be dark and quiet, but a number of high-elevation birds breed here, including Sooty Grouse and American Three-Toed Woodpecker. Look for the former along trails in the early morning and for the latter on soft-barked trees such as Corkbark Fir. At treeline, White-crowned Sparrows breed in shrubs, while American Pipits breed on the alpine tundra. Another way to bird this area in the summer is to take Snowbowl's Skyride, a 30-minute ride on a ski lift to 11,500 feet. Snowbowl's website ([]) has information on the Skyride and hiking in the area, as well as ski and road information. From Northern Arizona Audubon Society
