    Tips

    Running

    This overlook is at the intersection of the National Trail and Telegraph Pass Trail. You get a great view of the Gila River Valley from up here, but you do have to share the overlook with some car traffic. Most of the trails in the preserve are open to cyclists, but this can be a tricky uphill trail for riders. That being said, keep your eyes peeled because bikes get to moving on the downhill.
