This is our second time staying here and after we got settled in we remembered why we wanted to come back. For being relatively close to Phoenix, about 50 miles west, this place just doesn't seem to be well used but there are acres of level dispersed camping opportunities and the roads going to them are in fairly good shape. They get a bit rougher and rockier as you go closer to the mountains so it's wise to scope out a spot in your tow vehicle or on foot before driving too far in. It had been raining for a couple days before we arrived and the ground was surprisingly hard with no mud.
There is only one formal hiking trail going to the saddle, but there are jeep roads and lots of places to just go exploring on foot or mountain bike. We can hear a bit of noise from I-10 but it's several miles away so not bothersome.
Our Verizon internet is super fast as is our friend's AT&T. It wasn't this good even when we stayed closer to Phoenix in White Tank and McDowell Mtn County parks.
