Geocache Description:

The Mazatzals and its Four Peaks, Sierra Ancha, and the Superstition Mountains are all in view. The “Desert to Tall Pines” scenic Highway is an awesome road to travel in Arizona. 

The ringtail was designated the state mammal of Arizona in 1986. Ringtails are cat-sized carnivores resembling a small fox with a long raccoon-like tail. The tail is about the length of the head and body with 14-16 black and white bands and a black tip.  Almost wholly nocturnal, ringtails spend the greater part of the day asleep in their dens. They are expert climbers (capable of ascending vertical walls). Ringtails prefer rocky areas such as rock piles, stone fences, and canyon walls, making their dens in well-protected crevices, crannies, and hollows.


Good ol' fashion AZ rock pile at the base of Asbetos Point. BYOP
