Just be sure to at least run up the Apache Trail paved road to the north and visit Tortilla Flats and have a nice meal in their bar there...
The roadway goes down hill after that and is nothing more than a very small two lane winding dirt road all the way to the Roosevelt Lake some 40 miles away

We visited the Apache Trail on a regular basis back in the late 60s-early 70s and did alot of camping back up off the trails in our Jeeps and Tents etc... Great get-away place and not all that far away from the bigger towns...

My working days brought me back to this area many times as late as 2005 and always found time to go visit the Apache Trail.
Enjoy your visit to the Lost Dutchman SP and Superstition Mtns area
