Saguaro Lake Cove Routes (The Rolls)
Pobrecito OHV Staging Area, Bush Highway, Mesa area, AZ
About this trail
Marked routes from Pobrecito OHV Staging Area lead through The Rolls permit zone toward the coves of Saguaro Lake. Expect sandy washes, rocky climbs, ruts and narrow sections; high clearance and four-wheel drive are strongly recommended. The historical entry called this area Butcher Jones coves 1–4, but there is no OHV access through Butcher Jones Day Use Area. Use the designated Pobrecito staging access off Bush Highway and carry the current Forest Service zone map. A Tonto National Forest OHV Permit is required for motorized travel beyond staging. Stay on routes suitable for your vehicle width, and check current closures and conditions before travel. The pin identifies the agency’s public OHV staging area, not a particular cove or a complete driving route. The gallery retains all 20 historical source images, including three small repeated thumbnails.
