Trail Overview

This is a fun wash trail for just over 2 miles in the BLM land near Salome, Arizona. The east end starts in a wide sand wash lined with tall trees and bushes, with deep white sand and lots of tracks to follow. There are lots of unmarked splits in the wash, so a GPS map is helpful to navigate this route. The sand wash narrows up and makes some tighter turns in the sand. The wash starts to become lined with a couple of unique rock features, with more embedded rock in the wash, creating small obstacles and ledges less than a foot tall. There are lots of giant saguaros to the sides of the wash that are scenic. On the west end, it ends when the wash peters out with a couple of boulders that would be tricky to pass in an ATV, and a side road climbs out of the wash at this point.
