I used to do the Table Mesa road east to Seven Springs and Cave Creek quite
a bit, but unless things have changed in the last 2 years, I would not
recommend it without 4WD, as there are quite a bit of washouts that can
occur on the trail. You can easily come up from Cave Creek and cruise
around on Seven Springs Rd- I see sedans up there quite often, but making
the loop might be tough.
