The Pit is right of path. Per HAZ's PaleoRob: The pit itself is enormous. When I was on this trail, and the guide said "pit," I was thinking "hole in the ground." While there is a hole in the ground, it is all covered over by dirt and debris. The Apaches would dig a big hole, tens of feet across, light a fire, and put all their Agave hearts into the pit. Then they would cover the pit back up to trap the heat and roast the hearts. This was a big social event, taking place generally during the winter. The profusion of smoke-blackening from Apache fires and Apache pictographs around the pit bears testimony to that.
