I revisited the ruins after a nine year absence with 3 friends who had never been here before. Driving from Mesa to hwy 288, we exited on Cherry Creek Road after photos of the crested saguaro just passed Cherry Creek Road. We then drove to FS 38 and parked the car to walk the FS road to the canyon where the ruins are located. Driving a SUV, we were glad we parked on the road. We had read triplogs indicating a 2 mile hike, but my car would have gotten hung up on the road that was often covered with course rocks. A great starter hike that will motivate you to see more (Devils Chasm/Pueblo Canyon/Cooper Forks).
