Need to Know
This campground is a strong day hike up the Tanque Verde Ridge over 6.9 miles and 3,000 feet of gain. Exceptional views can be seen throughout the hike, and habitats change quickly from desert scrub to oak savanna and pine/ juniper woodlands. Water here is very seasonal, and often dry during the spring and fall. Fires are allowed here, only from collecting dead and downed wood.
