This is about 10 miles or so North of Price road. If you are coming from the North down 79 (traveling South) it is past the first set of railroad tracks. There is a flag pole visable from the road, usually there is no flag on it.
We will head up cottonwood, make a quick stop at the petroglyphs and then run up lower Ajax. We can stop for lunch either at the falls or by the play hills and then head out box canyon and come out price road. Probably take about 5 or so hours depending on traffic, getting stuck and breaking down...
I am not going to post this on AZVJC just yet. I want to keep the group a little on the small side to help make sure it moves along.

Coming out on Price Rd?
What time at Cottonwood Canyon Rd?
Em will be back from Prescott in a few hours, I'll see if she wants to ride along.
Edit:
This is just a day run?

Em and I are in.
See you at 10am unless something stupid happens between now and then.

Are we going in off of 60 and Mineral Mt. Rd.?
That's the only flag pole I recall (it's been awhile) right after you turn south off of 60.
Or are we going in off of 79 and Cottonwood Canyon Rd.?
I don't remember a flagpole there.
It does go to Mineral Mt. Rd, that I do remember.

10-4
Must be by the National Guard base there.
You need a state land trust permit to go in that way as I recall.
Mine is expired, we'll run it any way.

I took a look on the Google sat map. It is Cottonwood road. There is big parking lot there. The National Guard is a little farther south. I don't think we will be going though trust land. The AZVJC club never mentions to bring your permits and they are pretty good about that stuff.
Yeah, Florence is a great wheel'n area. Lower Ajax has some fun stuff on it with most of it easily bypassed. Box canyon is, well, Box Canyon. Not technically challenging but a really cool run through the canyon. It is one of my favories. Box seems to be one of the first runs we take our 'new' FSJ's on. It was the first for WILL AE on stock spings and tires:
Tom and I were brand new to wheel'n. We got WILL E through with no body damage and just a crushed exhaust pipe. I ordered my 4" Rusty lift shortly after that...
Here is a group shot from my 'original run'

I am going out today and blow the dust off the 77 Cher to see if it ready for a run.
It has been awhile. Had to work on the tranny yesterday. So my plan is to be there,
if FIVE FSJ is not too many
