Tour of Jake's Corner, Punkin Center, Roosevelt Lake, and Globe - 10/24/15
On Saturday October 24th we will have a one day touring event of the Jake's Corner, Punkin Center, Roosevelt Lake, Globe, loop. To many of you, this will be a familiar route as we have done it four times in the past. As best that I can calculate, this will be about 210 miles round trip.
We will begin the tour at the Target shopping center parking lot in Fountain Hills located at the intersection of Saguaro and Shea Blvds. We’ll meet at the west end of the parking lot by Starbucks. Plan to arrive at 9:00 AM and we'll depart at 9:15 AM. As always, please arrive with a full fuel tank, there is fuel available in the general area east on Shea. Please remember your club radio and name tags.
We will proceed north on Hwy 87 for 48 miles to the Junction with Hwy 188. Turn right on to the 188 heading for Jake’s corner and we will pull in the lot and park for 15 minutes. Then on to Pumpkin Center and Lake Roosevelt . We will cross a bridge which spans an arm of the Lake. Below (South) of the bridge, you may be able to catch a glimpse of the tallest brick dam in the U.S. When we past the bridge, we will come to the Scenic overlook on the left and we'll stop there to kill a little time and stretch our legs. Hwy 188 changes to Hwy 88 at the dam and we will continue until we reach the restaurant just outside of Globe. There is fuel available in Globe and we can either fill up before or after lunch depending upon our ETA.
Guayos On The Trail is on highway 88, left side , just before we enter Globe.
