Forest Road 112 branches off Doak Road (Forest Road 221) as it climbs out of a steep wash. The road continues to hug the mountainside and behave like a rocky rollercoaster, where 4WD and low range are recommended. After reaching a high point, the Signal Peak radio towers become visible to the north and the Pioneer Basin to the south. You'll also see the road in the distance as you cruise through the high desert landscape. Once you reach a saddle called Pioneer Pass, the road descends through tall pines. From here, the road is well-maintained and passes through the Pioneer Pass Recreation Area, which features campsites that include restrooms, picnic tables, and fire rings, but no water. The road ends at Ice House Canyon Road and continues into the town of Globe.
