Oracle Tour -
3/17/18
Our destination will be Oracle, AZ
and the Oracle Inn & Steakhouse
for lunch
where we have a private banquet room reserved. Here is their phone
number in the event you need it Ph:
(520) 896-3333
Here is a link that will take you to the
menu in 5 parts.
Starting point will be exit 197, Tomahawk Road., off the HWY 60.
We will meet at the
gas station on the N.E. corner.
When you come down the ramp, turn left under the highway and the station
and convenience store will be on the right.
We’ll assemble there at 9:30
AM and depart at 9:45 AM.
We’ll take highway 60 all the way to Globe
and we will be passing through the towns of Superior and Miami. We
will stop at the Chevron gas station and convenience store in Globe at
the far east end of town for 15 or
20 minutes for a comfort break and
fuel if you need it. This first leg from the Tomahawk Road to Globe is
approximately 70 miles.
We’ll head east out of Globe on Highway 60 and in just a short distance
turn right on Highway 77 south. It will be approximately 70 miles to the
next turn which is American Way in Oracle. Turn left on American
Way and follow it west to the Oracle
Inn & Steakhouse will be
on your right.
Following our stay in Oracle we will backtrack our route north on
highway 77 approximately 40 miles to the town of Winkleman, where we
will pick up highway 177 north through the towns of Hayden, Kearny,
Riverside, Kelvin and finally into Superior. Comfort or fuel stops will
be decided along the way and called out on the radio. From Superior, we
will head west on highway 60 for a return to Phoenix.
The scenery on highway 77 is picture post card stuff and should be
beautiful. This is truly a beautiful
drive and I am sure the meal at the Oracle Inn & Steakhouse will also be
excellent, we have eaten there previously.
Please have a full fuel tank at the start of the tour and remember
to bring along your communications
radio and always have an Arizona state map handy and you may want
a jacket it will be cold/cool in the higher
elevations.
As always, I will
need your RSVP for the restaurant head count, please be prompt with
this.
Please
email
your RSVP so I will know who to expect at the starting point.
