TRANSCRIPT
Alamo Lake State Park is one of the best places to fish for bass in Arizona. The lake is surrounded by mountainous terrain speckled with brush, wildflowers, and cacti, making for a visually pleasing experience. The park has good wildlife viewing opportunities, and you may spot a bald or golden eagle.
Stargazers are sure to enjoy the amazing views of the night sky since the nearest city lights are about 40 miles away!
The lake is located in the Bill Williams River Valley where the Big Sandy River and Santa Maria River come together. It was created with the completion of Alamo Dam in 1968.
Thank you for visiting!
