Does anybody know of ANY "back country", or "off the beaten path" tent camping in the N/E parts of Arizona?

Answer
I'm assuming that NE Arizona means the NE quadrant, framed by the border, I-40 and Highway 89.

What you want to do is called "dispersed camping". There is a boat load of primitive camping available on BLM land in most parts of Arizona, but apparently there is no BLM land in NE Arizona.

Most of the land here is Indian land - administered by the tribes and the federal Bureau of Indian Affairs. In NE Arizona, the Hopi and the Navajo have reservations (the Hopi reservation is completely surrounded by the Navajo reservation).

You will need a permit for a small fee ($5 to $10) from the tribe to camp on their lands. The classic vistas of Monument Valley are on Navajo land, as is Antelope Canyon. It appears as if the Navajo Nation allows camping in designated campgrounds, as well as backcountry.

Where are some nice camping areas in Payson, AZ?

Me and my friends are taking advantage of this coming holiday (4 day weekend) and want to go camping up in Payson (we're situated in Phoenix). We not taking a trailer, just some tents, and 1 vehicle. Is anybody aware of a really nice camping area, maybe next to one of the lakes, no fees even? Any input is greatly appreciated.
