Why's this called "Old Turk's Head"? by Steph_and_Blake ![]() The trail meanders in and out of small drainages for about 1.5 miles just south of the Superstition Wilderness boundary. Along the way, you can see Turk's Head and, occasionally, Old Turk's head in the background. We found the views of the Superstition Ridgeline interesting from this new perspective. We rounded the southern flank of Turk's Head and then abandoned the trail. However, we couldn't help but notice that someone(s) had put in a fair amount of effort to clear a path of vegetation up to some strange rock formations we passed about a third of the way to the top. Perhaps the weird rock formations are a popular place to hang out?
