Tuba City Concretions
Description of how to get there: To get there, take Highway 160 and in Tuba City turn south on Highway 264. After 7.15mi you reach a junction (Coordinate: Latitude 36.036930, Longitude -111.185218) . From here you drive on dirt roads. First turn right and then immediately left onto Indian Route 6710. The road continues in southern direction. After another 1.24mi you turn right. The road from now on can at best be described as a field path (Coordinate: Latitude 36.019145, Longitude -111.185156) . From here on, at the latest, you need a higher ground clearance for your vehicle. But it is not far.
