Trail Overview
An enjoyable Jeep trail that circles the non-wilderness portion of the New Water Mountains. This road serves as access to a lot of trails in the area, including many not shown on this website. Quite scenic with views of the mountains all the way around. A strange-looking rock formation up in the hills. There is an abandoned stone mining structure at the Apache Chief Mine. The most interesting part of the trail is the "Hogsback". A fairly long portion of the trail drops off on both sides. Drive carefully.
