I've observed twice from the Sedona area.
On 89A north of Cottenwood and South of Sedona there is a well maintained
dirt road Forest Road 525. If you travel west on it you will come to
several pullout that are used for dry camping.
You can still see a small light dome from Cottenwood but not much from
Sedona.
It's one of my favorite spots.

North, East and West should be good. What about the South?

Subject: [AZ-Observing] Trying Another Site
Ken Naiff and I have decided to observe at the site near Sedona
recommended by JD Maddy at the last SAC meeting. We're both planning on
arriving Thursday. Neither of us has been there before but it should be a
lot cooler than the Antennas.
If you are travelling North on I-17, take exit 298. Turn right. (Turning
left will go into Sedona) Go about 2 miles. The trailhead is on the left.
There is a sign saying "Bell Trail overflow parking area." (This is
actually the Bruce Brockett trailhead, which serves as overflow parking for
the Bell Trailhead.)
Please note that this is a "day use" site and the ranger needs to approve
nighttime use. The ranger we contacted is Elvin West, phone 607 280 0625.
(Note: it is 607, not 602)
