Thought it's been awhile since we had a sanctioned ROTM, this would be a nice and easy run. I did it back in May in my stock LC and didn't have any problems.
The trail starts at Table Mesa Rd. From there, we head east and make our way to Seven Springs Rd. Follow that until we hit Cave Creek Rd.
It took me about 4 hours. We could probably do it in less but I took the F.S. 37 offshoot which was washed out about halfway up.
One option would be to add the Big Maggie May Creek (Trail 42/ F.S. 468) offshoot since we'll be driving right by it on Seven Springs Rd. I went to both the mine and the burnt out cabin on a separate day. I thought the trail to the mine was much more difficult, which is the opposite of what the book says. I bottomed out both front and back bumpers but again, I'm running stock. The trail to the cabin had just been graded so it was a piece of cake.
The other option would be to skip Maggie May and head to Carefree/Cave Creek for lunch and .
I'll have a HAM radio but I'm forbidden to speak since I don't have my license. Can someone else post up what the official CSC channel is?
First time putting a run together so let me know if I missed anything (and be gentle).
