Nice drive and history in the area if you stop and read about it or visit the Superstitious Mountain Museum before they have maps and info you’ll get more out of the drive. I especially enjoyed the Saguaro cactuses they are everywhere and so big and old. Read about them too they are amazing!

I received a ticket from the library through the Culture Pass program for the Superstition Mountain Museum. Honestly got more out of the free part of Superstition Mountain itself. The hike and the "town" was interesting to see. Being able to go into the church, see Wells Fargo, jail etc and see photos/posters of all the actors who have made movies there, was unique. Never knew so many movies had been made there. Most.of what you see online about the place has to do with how Superstition Mtn got its name but not that the place has so much more history. I think the stamping machine still being used (can be seen at certain days a week) made me realize that the Mountain isn't the only thing memorable about the place. Make sure to keep hydrated if you hike it. Definitely bring a camera because the area is gorgeous.

I love this mountain but it can be dangerous if going during bad weather. My wife and I go about every other year and it’s a good challenge for us, we’re in our late 20s. I tried beating bad weather once, got lost and then the bad weather hit, this map is our path after realizing we were lost at the top of the mountain and couldn’t find a safe way down. Only ended up in a helicopter ride back down.
