Trail Overview
Gorgeous desert scenery varies from sandy washes and dry creekbeds to rocky cliffs and low hills. Expect to see various desert fauna including snakes, horned toads, and lizards. Flora includes many species of cacti and desert plants. As usual in this area, keep an eye on the weather, especially in the monsoon season. Monsoon rains bring extreme flash flooding that will wash away almost anything in its path.
