3 weeks agoParsons Trail was a good activity on a hot spring day. Good amount of shade along the trail, plenty of clear water to splash around in, and a couple of actual swimmin' holes.

2 months ago4x4 vehicle recommended. Quiet and pristine. Lots of terrain character and sun coverage. Dog friendly apart for some tight cliff passes. Plenty parking. Generally well marked trail. Depending on the weather, all trail water crossings are doable with some good shoes and a hiking stick. The off road portion to get there is scenic and worth while!

5 months agoIt's an Arizonan rain forest. It is breathtaking. Be ready to cross water, be ready to find your route, be ready to hike back, be ready for a rough road in.
