Join us in your 4-wheel drive Porsche Macan or Cayenne, or other 4-wheel drive vehicle, for an off-road tour across Four Peaks to Roosevelt Lake. We will meet at the Sunnyside Breakfast Lounge for the drivers meeting (come early if you want a great breakfast) at 8:30am. We will drive up Ellsworth Rd to the Beeline Highway to the entrance to the Four Peaks trail (Forest Road 143). The drive will take us across Four Peaks mountain range to State Route 188 at Roosevelt Lake where we will have lunch at the Butcher Hook Cafe (State Route 188, Sign #259, Tonto Basin, AZ). We will then return to Phoenix via the Beeline Highway. The tour will be on Class 1 and 2 unmaintained dirt roads and trails through beautiful back country and should be manageable by everyone. We will provide some spectacular photo ops.

This will be a sometimes very bumpy but relatively easy road for your Cayenne or Macan (or any other four-wheel drive vehicle). Street tires will be fine but expect to get your car very dirty! It is recommended (not essential) to reduce your tire pressures to about 28-30 psi for a more comfortable ride but you will need a way to refill them when we reach Roosevelt Lake. We will have some tire inflators available. Remember to bring plenty of water! All drivers will be required to download, print, complete and bring the PCA Off-Road Self-Inspection Checklist All registrants will receive more detailed instructions about a week before the drive.
