    The first half is a great hike that follows the creek below the dam and there are lots of trees, birds and cacti. It will be gorgeous when the rains come. Also, likely unpassable after heavy rains.

    Very nice. Maybe park at the church. Fairy long approach to the canyon through fields. No fences. Could be made shorter by exiting sooner. 3.5/5

    OK hike. Not special. Steep climb at beginning. Walk around slot valley pretty rocky, until great views east on Picachos. A bit of a scramble down. Good for cool days because very exposed and no shade.

    2.2 mile hike with plenty of places to stop along the way. While not long, it is entirely uphill for a mile, sometimes steep. But the reward of entering the area with caves makes it all worth it! Follow GPS to the start...

    Nice and shaded pretty much all the way. Steep climb at first, better done early. Down all the way back. On hot weather bring bathing suit and towel for a dip in the Presa. Missed the Hacienda ruins by one cañada.

    Darned nice hike that starts out slow but once you get towards the top, the views begin unfolding. Walking on the ridge is like a stroll through a green wonderland. Lots of tiny wildflowers this time of the year.

    Difficult because of very Rocky trail. The last part with cascade (dry) cave and scramble down is fun.
