Busy day. We couldn't get another night at the SP so we went out scouting early morning. I had noticed a boondock site on an app up this dead end road near a trailhead. First to scout it and see if there were any sites I wanted to bring the trailer into. There was! Two even! Back to the park to get the trailer and back up the road. Of course our first choice was all the way up the road. I did see a coyote run off the road and out of sight before Carlene could see it. We had to call the state to get a permit to camp up here. A whopping $20 for the year! This place is actually just on the opposite side of the Superstition Mountain from the SP we stayed at.
Got it up here. Yup, bent a jack, probably in one of the wash crossings. That'll offset the free site just a bit. But it's so beautiful and quiet and peaceful up here. We are noticing that people come up here after dark, it's only 8:00 PM so we'll see how late they come up.
The trailhead parking at the end of the road is less than a half mile. We walked up and went up a trail for 1.5 miles. It was late afternoon so we didn't want to go too far. Came back for a bit of happy hour and dinner.
