Out of Cave Creek, a short window of time opens into a concentrated dose of Sonoran Desert and high‑desert forest: a rented Can‑Am Maverick X3 Turbo, a GPS‑tracked route, and four hours to explore winding trails, sandy washes and ponderosa‑pine stands in the Coconino National Forest.

Highlights

THE FREEDOM

Semi‑guided independence on marked trails

This rental is set up as a semi‑guided experience: after a briefing you follow a designated GPS‑tracked route at your own pace while an on‑trail support team remains available—so you choose when to push the vehicle and when to slow down for scenery.

THE LANDSCAPE

Coconino National Forest: desert, pines and wide views

The trail network moves through high‑desert forest and open prairie, shifting scenery from sandy washes to ponderosa pines and sweeping mountain vistas—an off‑road way to see parts of the Coconino few visitors reach.

THE MACHINE

High‑performance Can‑Am Mavericks for varied terrain

Rented Can‑Am Maverick X3 Turbo vehicles are built to handle rugged trails and provide a stable, high‑performance ride that’s approachable for both newcomers and experienced drivers.

What the day feels like

What the four hours feels like
