As off road enthusiasts, Ironwood National Monument is an awesome place to explore. I've probably been out there 15 times, sometimes for the day, others for three days. So much to see. You just have to get outdoors and explore. Thousands of Saguaros, including a crested one. Peaceful. Quiet. Petroglyphs. On our recent trip, we didn't see anyone else for over 24 hours. Most of the trails are just dirt roads. There are a few legitimate obstacles. Part of it was recently graded. More migrant activity than 2020. Never felt unsafe or saw anyone. Just the telltale black water bottles.
