Dead Horse Ranch State Park Rally - Cottonwood, AZ 2025
Dead Horse Ranch State Park spans 423 acres, offering ideal conditions for camping, mountain biking in the Coconino National Forest, hiking along the Verde River, canoeing, picnicking, fishing, or simply wading in the cool waters of the Verde River. The ranch got its name when the Ireys family moved to Arizona from Minnesota in the late 1940s, seeking to purchase a ranch. At one property, they discovered a dead horse lying by the road. When Mr. Ireys asked the kids which ranch they liked best, they said, “the one with the dead horse.” The family named it “Dead Horse Ranch,” and when Arizona State Parks acquired the park in 1973, the Ireys made retaining the name a condition of sale.
