The state park has hiking trails, Geocaching, and rock-climbing areas. The park is situated about 30 minutes north of Tucson and approximately 1-hour South of the Phoenix Area.

Quiet Generators are permitted from 8:00 AM to 10:00 PM. The group area has portable toilets and fresh water available. Additionally, the ramadas where we have our potlucks and other activities have electrical power.<br><br>There are showers and restrooms nearby as well as dump station within the park.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>IMPORTANT:<\/strong>&nbsp;The park continues to experience a water shortage and no filling of fresh water tanks is allowed at the park, so please arrive with a full tank of water.<br><br><strong>Agenda:<\/strong> We are still putting together the Rally Agenda, but it will likely be very fluid. Be prepared for a couple of potlucks and happy hours. Other items you will want to bring will be warm outerwear, firewood, and recreational items such as bicycles.<br><br>We ask each rig to bring some firewood and Champagne if you would like to have that for the NYE Bon Fire.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Fees<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>This is where things are a little more complicated this year. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>Rally Fee<\/strong>: $15\/rig, non-refundable.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>Camping Fee<\/strong>: $60\/rig for the first 15 Group Site Registrations, refundable.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The Park required pre-payment of 16 Group Site campers when the group site was reserved. Thus, the first 15 rigs to register for the Group Site will be required to pre-pay a $60 camping fee as part of the rally registration process.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>If a &#8220;camping pre-paid&#8221; rally attendee cancels, the camping fee will be refunded and the next person on the Group Site list who wasn&#8217;t initially required to pre-pay will be contacted to pre-pay their camping fees.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Complicated, yes, but there it is.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Information Links<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/azstateparks.com\/picacho\">Picacho Peak State Park Website<\/a><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/urldefense.proofpoint.com\/v2\/url?u=https-3A__www.google.com_url-3Fq-3Dhttps-3A__azstateparks.com_picacho_explore_maps-26sa-3DD-26ust-3D1539736646374000-26usg-3DAFQjCNEOe5CiQoxP7bLqxdsyVHgyGGEYYQ&amp;d=DwMFaQ&amp;c=l45AxH-kUV29SRQusp9vYR0n1GycN4_2jInuKy6zbqQ&amp;r=WTtejW2AdJlxkI5RMyCrmAigA0f-wqnt0JPVyt4lIgo&amp;m=a1k-coNeOERvSc6WyBMxO3fFkZ6IpNXG5GTHoWpTfB0&amp;s=Y_4mNRMuvMOJSKICDN_Oz-AtGZEUgBXNtYFXm0gHwYc&amp;e=\">Driving Directions and GPS Coordinates<\/a><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/arizona-content.usedirect.com\/storage\/Park%20Map-PIPE.pdf\">Download Printable Park Map<\/a><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/docs.google.com\/spreadsheets\/d\/1or5fRO0nRwK8g1qesEb9U8kLUdRDAzHjhm3Gq22i8sc\/edit#gid=69042585\">Rally Agenda<\/a><\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><a href=\"https:\/\/form.jotform.com\/232957534622259\">Rally Registration opens here Saturday 4 November at 8am<\/a><\/h2>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Rally Registration Opens Saturday 4 November at 8am When: 28 December 2023 \u2013 1 Jan 2023 Where: Picacho Peak State Park, Arizona \u2013 Quail Group Site Hosts: Sergio Quiros and Louis Hall Join us for the annual New Year&#8217;s Rally in Sunny Southern Arizona and enjoy the beautiful Sonoran Desert setting with warm days and&hellip; <a class=\"more-link\" href=\"https:\/\/fourcornersunit.com\/news\/2023\/10\/new-years-rally-announcement\/\">Continue reading <span class=\"screen-reader-text\">New Years Rally Announcement<\/span><\/a><\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":2,"featured_media":0,"comment_status":"closed","ping_status":"","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"_jetpack_memberships_contains_paid_content":false,"footnotes":""},"categories":[4],"tags":[],"class_list":["post-615","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","hentry","category-rally-news-and-announcements","entry"],"jetpack_featured_media_url":"","jetpack_sharing_enabled":true,"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/fourcornersunit.com\/news\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/615","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/fourcornersunit.com\/news\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/fourcornersunit.com\/news\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/fourcornersunit.com\/news\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/2"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/fourcornersunit.com\/news\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=615"}],"version-history":[{"count":5,"href":"https:\/\/fourcornersunit.com\/news\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/615\/revisions"}],"predecessor-version":[{"id":621,"href":"https:\/\/fourcornersunit.com\/news\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/615\/revisions\/621"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/fourcornersunit.com\/news\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=615"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/fourcornersunit.com\/news\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=615"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/fourcornersunit.com\/news\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=615"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
