Our last activity in Cave Creek was a short hike to see a small waterfall. The hike is a little less than three miles and pretty straightforward since it’s an out and back. The destination is Camp Creek Falls....
Pima Canyon Hike
Somehow until now we have not hiked Pima Canyon. It is a great hike in the foothills of Tucson. Like a lot of hikes in the area, you can make it as long or as short as you want....
