    Awesome pics. I'm planning a camping trip with some friends for the beginning of next month and wanted to camp somewhere near water. Can you post directions to that spot, looks like a great place to camp!

    It was in the low 80's/mid 50's. We camped up on top of the canyon due to fire and camping restrictions near the creek.

    AZ has a little something foe everyone.;)

    Thanks, it was.:cool:

    Supposedly a constant 72 degrees year round. It was cols but you can acclimate fairly quick.

    I'll send ya a PM.

    Thank you.:)

    I wish I got a good pic of the water; in a lot of spots, it looks just like the blue beach water of Hawaii.

    You can camp 100ft from the creek as long as it's west of the bridge and no camp fires/grills. We hung out there for the day and then went back up to Strawberry and camped a few miles away.
