Trail Overview

First Camp Trail is a short easy trail providing access to camping areas with a great view of the Drop In, one of the main entrances to the canyon floor. There are 13 sites along the trail with cover from mesquite brush and plentiful cactus between sites. This is a great area for a base camp on your adventure. Please adhere to leave-no-trace principles as this is a pack-in/pack-out park. All sites must be reserved at the Merus Adventure office or @merusadventure.com.
