When I did the "Camino del Diablo" trip last year, I picked up my permit at the BLM in Phoenix. I got all the documents, read them, signed them, and got our permits in about 15 minutes in person.

The following is from my Arizona Backcountry Adventures book. "In recent years the permit system has been streamlined, so that one permit now covers access into the Barry M. Goldwater Air Force Range, the Cabeza Prieta National Wildlife Refuge, and Organ Pipe Cactus National Monument. It is essential that you obtain a permit before you go. The permit allows you to cross Organ Pipe Cactus National Monument on the Bates Well Road only. Permits may be obtained from the following places. Luke Air Force Base Gila Bend Auxiliary Field Range Operations Gila Bend, AZ 85337 (520) 683-6272 Range Management Department Box 99160 Marine Corps Air Station Yuma, AZ 85369 (520) 341-3402 Bureau of Land Management Yuma Field Office 2555 Gilda Ridge Road Yuma, AZ 85365 (520) 317-3200 Bureau of Land Management Phoenix Field Office 2015 West Deer Vally Road Phoenix, AZ 85027 (602) 580-5500 Cabeza Prieta National Wildlife Refuge 1611 North 2nd Ave. Ajo, AZ 85321 (520) 387-5226 Hope this helps. I hope that we can put together a good sized assault force for this cache. We have been wanting to make a trip out there for quite some time. The more we have the better it should be.
