Trail Overview

A fun trail that meanders through the landscape. The scenery is reminiscent of Western movies. There are lots of Saguaro cactus, some Ocotillo cactus, and gardens of Jumping Cholla cactus to see. The trail goes into a canyon through several wash crossings, down into a deep wash, and climbs back out to get to the trail's end. There are several side trails you can take in addition to this.

Difficulty

The deep wash near the middle of the trail is about a 10 foot drop down in, and a climb back out of equal or steeper proportion. You might want lockers on in addition to 4 wheel low as the dirt out is very loose. Don't attempt this in rainy conditions. Look before entering the wash, there is no go around.
