Beautiful spot

Beware drive in can be muddy if raining 4wd recommended and AWD is fine too. Front or Rwd is doable but at your own risk.

Bathroom Firepit Table There are only 4 available spots.

Cliffside camping, close to a market about 15 minutes away.

Has a hiking trail 1.25 miles down along the canyon to the river, cactus and volcanic rock all the way down. Coming back up is tough, so pack light. Decent gold panning area with swimmable spots.

All around great spot with a beautiful sunset.
