Nice scenic drive to the top, to watch the sunset. I did have to move a tree out of the road.

Short drive with absolutely spectacular views of the peaks and all of northern Arizona. There's no lookout tower at the top anymore, but there are now some communications towers and other structures plus a small solar array. You have to walk the last couple hundred yards to get to the actual peak as there's a gate on the road.

Trivia: How many US peaks have the name "Saddle Mountain"? (And is it more or less than Sycamore Creek or Bear Canyon?) :roll:
