Itinerary description

This is one of the most popular hikes in Arizona, so it's busy, but well worth a visit. The canyon is narrow with lots of trees and shadow.
The walk starts easy with some creek crossings depending on the water, but easy to do in September without getting wet feet.
The last part is more difficult and it is less easy to find the trail. It moves left uphill, make sure to look around first, to find the right trail.
After some climbing you find the trail that is in a good condition. Going down again into the canyon, reaching the canyon floor, after a few more feet it's the end of the trail.
This is one of the more beautiful parts of the canyon and there is too much water to go any further.

    This trail is gorgeous... you will take longer than 1 1/2 hours one way... too beautiful to try. And in summer you can walk through the water another mile in summertime where you can see more amazingness. Water levels go from able deep to 2 1/2 feet
