Geocache Description:

The Williamson Valley Road Series is a Friends of Morgan Ranch Nature Park history project. Even numbered caches are on the E side of the Rd & odd on the W for 44 mi. WE RECOMMEND THAT YOU WORK 1 SIDE OF THE ROAD AT A TIME. Please pick up trash so the neighborhood trash-pickers are not drawn to the location.

LOOKOUT MOUNTAIN Yavapai County Public Works reported three archeological sites below Lookout Mountain in a 1998 Williamson Valley Road cultural survey. Researchers identified projectile points, shards, a petroglyph resembling a lizard, artifacts related to food processing, and remains of the historic Hardyville Toll Road. A 1992 survey near Outer Loop Road recorded Prescott Culture ceramic shards, stone artifacts, two circular mounds, and a possible cist site that could have served as either the final resting place of human skeletal remains or a fire pit. Prehistoric sites on top of nearby Table Mountain provided strategic line-of-sight views of other rock enclosures, which may have been vital for relaying warning signals.
