FS 9385N

Trail Overview

This trail starts very rocky with long slab rock ledges running across the road, creating an uneven and bumpy surface right from the beginning. After the initial stretch, it transitions into a smoother but still rocky forest road as you pass the parking area for Dickinson Flat, a large open meadow. You might want to take a closer look at the open field on the satellite map to see how many miles it is to Phoenix. The mileage is spelled out in white rocks. As the route continues, vegetation begins to close in, and the pine trees tighten around the trail, creating narrower sections. The trail alternates between exposed rock, smoother dirt, and tight tree corridors, with frequent rolling dips and washouts along the way. Just before the end, there is a large downed tree blocking the road, and the trail finishes at a small campsite without a direct view over the rim.
