For a special ranger-guided backpacking experience, consider the Crack-in-the-Rock hike, offered on weekends in April and October. This trip explores fantastic rock art and pueblo architecture in an area not normally open to the public.

This is a strenuous 16-mile cross country overnight trip, carrying a 30-40 pound pack. Each hike is limited to 13 people; minimum age is 10. Cost is $50.00 per person, and participants are selected through a lottery system. 

Please call for more information: 928-679-2365
