Enhance your trail experience with the White Tank Mountain Field Guide — your pocket-sized companion for identifying native plants and wildlife as you explore the mountains.

Created by Karen Krause, local Waddell historian, author, and dedicated White Tank Mountains Conservancy volunteer, this beautifully crafted guide was published with one goal in mind: to help visitors better understand and appreciate the natural and cultural richness of the White Tanks.

Karen has generously donated all proceeds to support the Conservancy, and the initial printing was funded through a grant from Arizona Public Service (APS).

This 100+ Page Guide Features

  • 120 full-color photographs
  • Concise descriptions of the most common plants, animals, and birds found throughout the mountain parks
  • Geology and history highlights of the range
  • Essential desert safety tips
  • Compact and perfect for any hiker

The proceeds from Field Guide sales contribute to the long-term conservation of the cultural and natural resources of the White Tank Mountains and to the experience of mountain visitors.
