There is some thought that "Caruthers" should be spelled with two r's as "Carruthers." This is apparently noted in books by Ausmus and Casebier. Also, Figure 17 on page 21 of Reynolds and Reynolds (1995) implies that Carruthers may be an alternate spelling of Caruthers. However, Caruthers seems to be the adopted spelling for use on maps, etc. | ||

| This unusual rock formation is found at the end of the road in Caruthers Canyon. There are several informal camp sites here. This rock is often photographed because of its intriguing shape. It forms part of my evidence showing that Annie Alexander and Louise Kellogg incorrectly identified Caruthers Canyon as Fourth of July Canyon while collecting plants here in 1940. | |||

| I have never traveled on Caruthers Canyon Road between New York Mountain Road and Cedar Canyon Road. Years ago, the road was supposed to be difficult but passable. Be careful! | |||
