 | | Karrin, founder of Arizona's Wander Women Mountaineering Club, invited me and Steve to join her, her eighteen year-old son, Johnny, and "Big John," a friend from California, for the five-mile hike to, through and back from Salome Jug. |
 | | The Jug is located in the rugged, mountainous Salome Wilderness of Tonto National Forest, on the northeast side of Roosevelt Lake -- land of suaros, prickly pear and ocatillo, and, in the summer months, rock almost too hot to touch. |
 | | The most popular time to visit Salome Jug is in May and June, when the water is clear and not too cold, and the flow rate is moderate. |
