Description

Starting from a dirt pull-out along SR-159, roughly 1.5 miles south of the Scenic Drive exit, the route crosses a fence and follows an old Jeep road on a 4.8-mile moderate hike. Closer to the hill standing just before the mouth of Oak Creek Canyon, petrified wood and conglomerate rock crop up along the desert ground.
