FR 1900
Posted: Apr 24 2002 7:44 am
Forest Route 1900 (Tonto National Forest, South Half) is 4x4 only. This road will access Forest Trail 237 (Mill Site Canyon) and the natural bridges in the Superstition Wilderness Area.
0.6 miles after turning onto FS 172, FR1900 spurs off to the left
I went in about 3.4 miles and hiked a little more then off spured off FR1900 as mentioned in 'Quail Spring to Eagle Spring' Hike Summary.
I can't imagine driving through the first major creek crossing and there's some major problems after that. However, it had been recently and looked frequently traveled... by what I can't imagine unless it had a Caterpillar logo on the front.
It's a great area!!! But kind of rattled my nerves coming out. You won't be taking your new shinny SUV in here and come out without a scratch. It's was necessary to hug the edge in one section to avoid a washout.
