A fun, lightly-used backcountry road to popular Mt. Lemmon. Usually driven from south side on busy Catalina Highway. Camp in Coronado National Forest’s Peppersauce Campground. Well-maintained dirt road but very bumpy. Low range is helpful to climb the last few miles up the backside of Mt. Lemmon. Two-wheel drive, high-clearance adequate in dry weather. Snow and ice possible near top in late fall. Avoid during the winter
