Reservation Road between Mile Wide and Manville Roads has a graded gravel surface and traverses desert and abandoned farm land. Most of the land along the road is owned by the City of Tucson for water rights and is fenced and posted against entry. Traffic is usually light. Radio controlled airplanes and model rockets may be noisy at times.
