Not that it's helpful now, but for future reference - there's a road on Hwy
93 just north of Wickenburg with a gas station/Jack in the Box that would
have been useful....I think it's Vulture Mine Road. 

If memory serves me correctly, taking this road out of Wickenburg is a slow,
winding affair down the hillsides but it eventually comes out to
recognizable civilization just north of the Flatiron observing site.

Well, Ken, the party has obviously spilled out into the street.  I did
enjoy staying home and watching the Spiderman DVD I bought, but it was not
my first choice.  It has cleared out here at 9 PM, I hope that somebody
went out observing and had a good time.
