Doak Road (Forest Road 221) branches off Pinal Mountain Raod (Forest Road 651) and descends sharply onto a narrow, rocky road. It twists and turns through hillsides of agaves and century plants. There will be moments when you won't be able to anticipate what's over the next ridge or beyond the next curve. Keep an eye out for birds and white-tailed deer, which are common in this area. You'll reach the bottom of the canyon and cross Mill Creek wash, only to climb up the other side to Bobtail Basin. The road features great views of both Signal Peak and Pinal Peak, including Pioneer Basin below. No preexisting campsites exist along the route, as there is little room for anything other than your vehicle.
