Welcome! I'm at Recker and the Red Mountain Freeway, so not too far away. We we're thinking of driving up to Four Peaks this weekend for a nice easy cruise. If your looking for a quick little trip, I recommend Bulldog Canyon. You need a permit, but they're free and you can get it quickly online from the forest service. We are new to the Valley, so my son and I hit Bulldog just about every weekend since it's right around the corner.

Welcome! I'm down south in Tucson, but I hit the trails quite frequently. If you are ever down here and want to explore, let me know!
Thanks guys. I would definitely be interested in tagging along on some trips. Also appreciate the advice - I've been looking at Four Peaks and Bulldog Canyon as well as Box Canyon near Florence.
I've been wanting to do Box Canyon, but I'm not lifted yet, so I'd definitely want to do it with a group.

What time you thinking? i may have a pass i can use this weekend for a while :) lol
My son and I could be interested as well. We just moved into our new house last weekend, so we have a lot to do, but we could probably get a pass for a few hours!

Awesome! Right now we are planning on meeting at the trailhead at 1pm on Saturday. I can keep you guys updated if anything changes.

cool, i was thinking earlier while its cooler but i'm down for A/C wheeling as well :) we need to keep an eye on the weather as well. it flash floods in the canyons there and there are many crossing down low. which gate trailhead are you meeting?
Now gotta butter up the mrs. for my hall pass LOL
When you say trailhead, do you mean the entrance off of Ellsworth/User Mtn Pass?

Great. I wasn't sure. You can go in through four different gates, so I wanted to make sure I knew which one you considered the trailhead.

yes definitely good to know, i have only exited from there, i usually enter from Wolverine, the south gate and run FR10 north to the Bush HWY gate.
My favorite part is FR1356, which splits from 10 and takes you out to Apache Trail. The views are outstanding. The only part I haven't done yet is the split off that takes down the AA Mine.

In all honesty I was just going off of what it said on the AZoffroad website. We can meet at a different gate if it's easier.

right on, i need to explore more out there as well and thinking when it cools off in the fall i want to take the family out there and see how camping is with my little one is. at least if it's not working out we can be home in no time. Also my brother wants to come out and try it too but worried since he's driving a 2wd pre-runner that he cant make it out there.
