Painted Rock Dam and Sonoran National Monument

Cave Creek to Prescott via Seven Springs and Bloody Basin Roads

Great easy ride. Fast graded dirt roads. Scenery is better traveling from west to east. Crossing the Agua Fria River near Cordes Junction could be a problem after heavy rains. Otherwise the crossing is usually a trickle.
