Overview

Cedar Pocket Road easily travels through a scenic desert landscape located within the Arizona Strip. The route has numerous opportunities for free primitive camping where you'll have spectacular views of the Beaver Dam Mountain Wilderness. You can choose to stop for a hike down into Cedar Pocket Wash but be sure to leave time to take a short side trail to visit the natural sinkhole at Waypoint 08. Once you travel over the pass, the highest point along the route, the panoramic views of the desert valley below are truly impressive. The route makes for an ideal start for an all-day journey to the Three Corners Memorial which marks the point where Arizona, Nevada and Utah state lines meet.
