The Three Dog Group of ruins are located in the Agua Fria National Monument near Black Canyon City, Arizona. There are 3 pueblo style ruins at the site plus an area of pottery scatter. To get there take I-17 Exit 259 and follow the Bloody Basin Road for 11 miles. Turn right onto 9269E and continue straight for another 4.4 miles. Take the right fork (straight) at this point and continue for another 2.5 miles. Continue straight past the Squaw Creek Group of ruins on FR 599 for another 1.6 miles where the ruins will be on the left near the rim of the canyon overlooking Squaw Creek.
Included with this post is the GPS file and map that we plan to use for our first visit. If you don't want to wait for us to get around to it feel free to try the GPS file and map for yourself. With no guarantee, of course, but they most often prove valuable for us.
