We came in off I-17 after dark. For the first few miles most sites were filled with 5th wheels/pull behind campers. We wanted the dispersed camping experience, so we drove approximately 6 miles in and picked a spot. After mile 3ish, the RVs and pull behinds dwindle. If you have 4x4, here’s where the fun begins (nothing major).

We woke up to an AMAZING view! After breaking down our rooftop tent, we continued down Schnebly Hill Rd (12miles). It leads to Merry-Go-Round and other hikes. I’d say you likely need 4x4, unless you’re an experienced off-roader driving a vehicle with some clearance.

We absolutely loved the experience four wheeling and camping.
