Grasshopper and I were in the Sierra Ancha for a week of car camping and hiking to escape the Phoenix Heat. We established our base camp near Aztec Peak the day before and headed out to do some off-trail exploratory hiking on the second day. Hiking up a heavily forested hillside we came across a nice small compound style Indian ruin on a bench sticking out from the hillside. This was a new find for us. There were only about 6 rooms but the external wall was still standing where two sections met at a 90 deg angle and were up to about 5 feet high at the highest point. GH found a couple of nice sized pottery sherds sticking out of the dirt near one of the walls. We searched the remainder of the bench for more ruins with no luck and then drove to another location in the SA to do some more exploring.
