Acropolis late afternoon


Description 

This section features the southernmost cliffs of the Superstitions, including Carney Springs Wall, Fire and Ice Wall and The Acropolis. These formations are found to the west of Peralta Road that takes you to the Peralta Trailhead.

The rock in this area is somewhat standard Superstitions quality, so stay alert for loose stuff and bring a helmet.


Getting There 

From Phoenix, drive east on Highway 60. From Apache Junction, drive another 8 miles on US 60 to a left turn onto Peralta Road. For the approach to these walls, park a 1/4 mile back from the Peralta Trailhead parking, and left of the road. I guess there is a gate now blocking the short road that used to be used to park for this area.
