Update: After a little research, I found that we were at Camp Creek Falls yesterday. It used to be a very popular place for Jeep tours to bring visitors but the washes were closed to any motorized traffic a couple of years ago because of a devastating fire in the area. Closing to motorized will give vegetation a better chance of coming back and a bonus for photographers is that it’s no longer crowded.

waterfall in the desert
The greatest thing about living here is the tremendous amount of diversity in terrain within a fairly short distance! This waterfall is only about half an hour from us in the Tonto National Forest. There is always water here although it’s just a trickle in later summer. We assume the water is the result of snow melt north of us. Whatever the source, it’s a great hike that’s just over 2 miles round trip. Easy going down but tough coming out! So…here are some photos from our hike yesterday. I posted more than I normally do as a make-up for not posting all last week 🙂
