Camping near Six Shooter Canyon, Arizona
Six Shooter Canyon is a small community in Gila County, just south of Globe in central Arizona, sitting at the base of the Pinal Mountains within the Tonto National Forest. The canyon drains north through Globe via Pinal Creek toward the Salt River near Theodore Roosevelt Lake, and its trailheads open into a Sky Island landscape of manzanita bushes, piñon pines, alligator junipers, Gambel oaks, Arizona sycamores, Fremont cottonwoods, ponderosa pines, velvet ash, bigtooth maples, Engelmann spruce and quaking aspens.
RV travelers use the area as a base for hiking, off-highway vehicle recreation, fishing, and lake days at Roosevelt Lake, roughly 30 miles north. Full-hookup options cluster in and around Globe, while Forest Service sites in the surrounding mountains skew primitive with no trash services, water, or electric.
Closest to town, Gila County RV Park and Batting Range sits within easy reach of Globe's historic downtown. Apache Gold Casino Resort adds a casino-adjacent RV option a short drive east on U.S. 70. For OHV riders, Mescal Mountains OHV Area is nearby, Roosevelt Lake Marina RV Park anchors the lake, and Ride Out Ranch rounds out the local options.
Things to do near Six Shooter Canyon
Hiking is the headline activity. At least eight trails can be found within one mile of Pinal and Six Shooter Campgrounds, and the Six Shooter Canyon Trail to Pinal Mountain is an out and back trail that covers 13.4 mi, taking approximately 8–9 hr to complete with an elevation gain of 3,868 ft, delivering long views from Signal Peak. Wildlife along the route includes black bears, white-tailed deer, mountain lions, bobcats, coatimundis and other species.
Roosevelt Lake is the regional draw for boating, bass fishing, and shoreline recreation, with Roosevelt Lake Marina RV Park serving as a base on the water. Off-highway vehicle riders head to the Mescal Mountains OHV Area, and history-focused travelers can visit the Besh-Ba-Gowah Archaeological Park near Globe and the Salado cliff dwellings at Tonto National Monument near the lake.

March through May and mid-October through mid-November are the most comfortable stretches for RV travel, with daytime highs commonly in the 20s Celsius (roughly 68 to 84 Fahrenheit) and cool nights. Wildflowers bloom in the canyon in spring, and March to May is the most popular time of year to visit Six Shooter Canyon Trail to Pinal Mountain.
Summer daytime highs in Globe typically run in the low to mid 90s Fahrenheit, and July and August bring the North American Monsoon. July is the wettest month with 65 mm (2.6 in), while June is the driest with 5.6 mm (0.2 in). Afternoon thunderstorms, flash-flood risk in canyons, and fire restrictions on the Tonto National Forest are all common during this window.
Winters are mild in town, but the Pinal Mountain campgrounds sit high enough that winters recieve snowfall, and Forest Service roads such as FR 651 can be difficult when wet. Winter highs at Globe average in the mid to upper 50s Fahrenheit with overnight lows near freezing.
How to book campgrounds near Six Shooter Canyon
Tonto National Forest developed campgrounds and group sites in the Globe Ranger District, including options in the Pinal Mountains and Timber Camp Recreation Area, are reserved through Recreation.gov or by phone at 877-444-6777. Recreation.gov reservations typically open 6 months in advance on a rolling basis at 7:00 AM Pacific Time (10:00 AM Eastern). For example, if you want to camp on July 15th, reservations would open on January 15th at 7:00 AM PT. Some individual sites operate first-come, first-served when not held for group use, with self-pay stations on site.
Private parks book direct. Roosevelt Lake Marina RV Park takes reservations through the marina office. Gila County RV Park and Batting Range, Apache Gold Casino Resort, and Ride Out Ranch each handle bookings through their own front desks or websites.
What to expect on the ground
Expect a mix of full-hookup private parks close to Globe and rustic Forest Service sites in the mountains. Tonto National Forest campgrounds around the Pinal Mountains generally have no trash services, water, or electric, with a pack-it-in, pack-it-out policy and quiet hours 10:00 pm to 6:00 am (running generators are not permitted during quiet hours).
Access matters. FR 651 is a narrow winding mountain gravel road suitable for sedans under dry conditions, and trailers under 16 feet are the limit at Pinal and Six Shooter Campgrounds. Larger rigs are better suited to Gila County RV Park and Batting Range, Apache Gold Casino Resort, or Roosevelt Lake Marina RV Park. Cell service is patchy in the canyons.
