This gravel forest road FR 42 is the eastern part of the connection from the town of Portal at Cave Creek Canyon up and over the mountains before dropping down to Hwy 181 near the West entrance to Chiricahua National Monument. It connects to the paved end near Portal, labelled Cave Creek Road, while the section west of Onion Saddle is often labelled Pinery Canyon Road or South Pinery Canyon Road. The first four miles on Cave Creek Road from Portal are paved. Just before the Southwest Research Station at Herb Martyr Road (FR 42A) it turns to dirt and is a graded dirt road the rest of the way. It is rocky in places. In Cave Creek Canyon camping is only allowed in campgrounds. Once you are on National Forest land beyond the SW Research Station there are tons of dispersed camping sites all the way to the forest boundary.

The Portal Bunkhouse is located at the entrance to Cave Creek Canyon at an elevation of 5,000 feet. The canyon's soaring cliffs, with their caves and pinnacles, are often described as "Arizona's 'Secret' Grand Canyon." Cave Creek, a perennial stream, flows through the canyon nearby. The diverse wildlife that can be seen in the canyon include a stunning variety of bird species. Cave Creek Canyon is located on the eastern slope of the Chiricahua Mountains in southeastern Arizona, about 2.5 hours from Tucson. It is world-renowned for its dramatic rock formations and diverse wildlife. Birding is exceptional year-round, and particularly rewarding during the summer months. Hiking and rock-climbing are also popular activities, and picnic areas dot the canyon for its many hikers.

Certainly the busiest place in the Park, but well worth it.

Superb view, and possible departure from this point to do the small or large loop allowing you to discover the entire park and its magnificent landscapes. The parking lot is not very big so arrive early. There are dry toilets.

Open from 8:30 AM to 4:30 PM MST. They hold exhibits about geology, natural history, archaeology, and cultural history at the visitor center. There is also a bookstore with a great variety of topics ranging from Apache history to children's books. Closed on Thanksgiving and Christmas Day.
