Introduction
This is a beautiful hike in the springtime when it has running water and large clean pools with a few down climbs or rappels.
Approach
Follow the I-17 up to the senator highway signs for Crown King. Head Northwest past the town of Bumblebee to the hidden treasure mine head west on fs road too top of canyon
Descent
Make your way down to the canyon from the car park it's a bit Steep and Brushy. once in the canyon it opens up nicely, lots of Slickrock a few down climbs and some large pools too cool you down. Once the canyon opens up you can continue to Black Canyon Creek which makes for an extra mile and a nice hike especially if the creek is running.
Exit
There's a faint Trail on Creek right, at a Confluence just as the gorge opens up.
