Pueblo La Plata is a site in the Agua Fria National Monument that we haven’t visited yet. The ruins have standing walls with windows and doorways remaining. A few petroglyphs can be found on nearby boulders. To get there, take I-17 Exit 259 and follow the Bloody Basin Road for 8.9 miles, turn left and proceed another 0.4 miles to the trailhead. A high clearance 4WD might be required to get all the way to the trailhead where it is another quarter mile or so to the ruins.
For turn-by-turn directions you can enter ‘Pueblo La Plata, Mayer, AZ’ into your driving app.
