Trail Overview

First off you will need a permit from recreation.gov and six months of codes for each gate surrounding Bulldog Canyon. The permit will be under the Tonto National Forest Off-Highway Vehicle Permit. This is a part of the Willow Springs Trail. This trail starts off as willow springs but goes back into Bulldog Canyon. This is a very rocky and off-camber trail that gets really rough the futher back you get into it.
