Earp Falls 2.0 - 3.5

Earp Falls is created by seepage from Copper Basin Reservoir and is a perennial waterfall.  The associated wash is verdant with palm trees and other vegetation not commonly found in this area.  The water is cold and clear.
​

This trail is rated 2.0 from the north end to just south of Earp Falls.  There is a 3.5 rated obstacle just south of Earp Falls.  The trail is also rated 2.0 beyond the obstacle but there is no go-around, hence the 2.0 - 3.5 rating.

Stock Jeeps can easily visit desert art and the falls along the north part of the trail then turn around.  Well equipped ones can continue on.

There is a GPX/GPS file at the bottom of the page.

There are a couple dozen displays of desert art created with colored rocks near the north end of the trail.  A short walk off the road.
