| no partners | | Signal peak is a county high point. It's been on our radar for year and we finally took the time to drive out and hike it. We also hiked Ten Ewe mountain on the way back which was a pretty steep climb with some scrambling involved. There were cairns on both routes but I would highly recommend having a route for both hikes if you attempt them.
We made it to the trailhead using a rear wheel drive high clearance Ford F-350 van. If the road is dry, you should be able to make it to the trailhead using any high clearance vehicle.
Driving directions: Take I-10 from Phx/Tucson West to Quartzsite, AZ. Take US-95 South to Palm Canyon Rd. Turn Left. Continue for 3 miles to junction. Turn left to continue on Kofa Queen Canyon Rd. At this point the road will get a bit rougher but any high clearance vehicle should be fine. Continue for 6.9 miles to Skull rock area which will be North of the road. From Skull rock area, continue another 0.7 miles to Signal peak trailhead.
Trailhead location is at 33.368593, -114.061863.
