in the heart of geronimo’s homeland here in the Chiricahua’s. You drive right by the final resting place of Johnny Ringo, made famous in the movie Tombstone on your way here
Great trail. Even more fun when water is flowing.
Love it
I've been tent camping here since 1975. Love this place! Recently went there in our 13' camp trailer ( I'm getting older and need a softer bed !) We saw many turkey hens and toms as well as a mule deer and several white tail! Great tent camping as well as a campground with tables and toilet facilities. There is a waterfall past the campground when creek is running. Good hiking.
