The road to the summit is gravel. High clearance 4WD vehicles required. Portions of the road have narrow drop-offs or are confined by steep cliffs. The weather on this zone is harsh and highly unpredictable. Arizona weather can change quickly. Be prepared. Dress in layers, wear a hat, and pack sunscreen. Always carry plenty of water. Please take extra care to drive defensively on this route. Always expect a vehicle around the next bend and remember: mountain courtesy gives uphill traffic the right of way. Summer months may be really hot. The best time to go is October-May. The summit is the highest point of the Black Hills, the northern extension of the Peloncillo Mountains in eastern Arizona. At the summit there are some communications towers.
