Enjoy the surrounding views of the Southern AZ from Windy Point; I do not know of a better viewing place.

After visting the cache and viewing the area, drive up Mt. Lemmon Hwy. to Summerhaven and The Ski Area.
There are several cafes and dinning places; I eat at Alpine Lodge when I drive to Summerhaven.
