A couple years ago me and a buddy of mine tried to get out to Madera Peak and ended up not making it to the trailhead. The road looked crazy and we turned around. An important note on this one. Follow the guide posted driving instructions closely. If you see a road going up the mountain and just try it on a whim you may regret it. If you take directions from Google you will regret it. Miami is basically a labyrinth of bad roads. Choose wisely.

I parked the truck where there was some space. I didn't see any signs. The hike itself follows a road the majority of the time and is quite steep. It gets steeper near the top by the tower. From there it is just a little push to the actual peak. This is a stout little hike if you want to be among the trees and not drive too far out of Phoenix.
