Hawley Lake is an American Шаблон:Convert lake and place in east-central Arizona, in the White Mountain Apache Indian Reservation, and has an elevation of Шаблон:Convert.[1]
The lake is a remnant of Pliocene volcanism on the Mogollon Rim[2] but it has been artificially extended as a reservoir for downstream irrigation plus trout and ice fishing (though an $9 tribal licence is required to fish on the reservation). The camphost Bill Kee has been part of this recreation facility for nearly 25 years. Its popularity as a recreational area is enhanced by a nearby ski resort.
Climate
Owing to its high elevation, Hawley Lake has a humid continental climate (Köppen Dsb) and stands as one of the coldest and wettest places in Arizona. In March 1973 snowfall was as high as Шаблон:Convert. Rainfall from July to September is also high, though not exceptional compared to many parts of southeastern Arizona. Hawley Lake holds the all-time record low temperature in Arizona history with −40 °F/°C recorded on January 7, 1971. It also holds the record for most precipitation in a calendar year in Arizona with Шаблон:Convert in 1978 – much of that being snow.[3] Шаблон:Weather box
