Trail Overview

North Canyon Wash is a one-lane dirt and rock trail that goes through a very densely forested area of the Kaibab National Forest. It pops out of the forest into a beautiful meadow, which has primitive campsites and room for activities. There are no obstacles on this trail, and no cell service either. The trail does have some erosion and could prove muddy and unpleasant during the monsoon season or after a rain event. The far end of the trail terminates at Crystal Spring, which was not flowing when this trail was mapped. It also terminates into the Arizona National Scenic Trail, which is a hiking trail and not for use with motor vehicles.
