Ed67 Report post Posted January 20 South of I-10, probably a few miles west of Salome Road. No real reason I’m just wondering anyone knows the name of these mountains? They look rugged. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

AZBIG10 Report post Posted January 20 From Quartzite: Take I-10 east to the Hovatter Road exit (#53). Turn right onto Hovatter Road. After crossing over the canal, turn left onto an unmarked dirt road. After 1 mile, turn right onto YE005. Follow YE005 until it dead-ends at Pipeline Road (unmarked). Turn left and continue until reaching the natural gas pumping station. Drive around the north side of the facility and continue east on Pipeline Road for seven miles until reaching backcountry route YE013 (near the Wilderness designation sign). Turn right and park near the information kiosk. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

high rise hunter Report post Posted January 20 Certainly the Eagletails. I use to spend a decent amount of time in there-- rugged indeed. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Edge Report post Posted January 21 Eagletails. Courthouse Rock plainly in view. Rode thru the wilderness for the umpteenth time last Thursday. Yes, bighorns galore and an aptly named Petroglyph Canyon. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Sore Finger Road... Close, it's Hovatter road. But if you take the Sore Finger exit and go north, just as you get out of sight of I-10, there's a rape tree on the west side of the road where there's room to pull over. If you've never seen a rape tree, it's alarming, sad and enraging all at the same time. Go a little further up the road, stay to the right and you'll be driving through the cemetery of the ghost town, Harrisburg. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

The tree you speak of, is that where the dad had to come and rescue... Oh, never mind... Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
