As you go on the south end of the Pine Creek Loop, you continue to climb. Your reward is that soon the sound of traffic on AZ-87 is replaced with the sound of running water, at least on this day it was.

Once you get to the point where the Pine Creek Loop turns back, Boulder Flat is next, actually much closer to 2 miles than the 3 miles stated on the sign. One last look back to see AZ-87 getting further away, as soon it will disappear from view.
