Current Water Availability in the Supes

Post by Stupawx »

Anyone been over to the Superstition Mountains recently? Looking for any reports on water availability over in the Superstition Wilderness, specifically Marsh Valley.

Worst case will be Charlebois Spring, about 1.5 mi. east, although check along LaBarge Canyon between Charlebois and M.V. - you may have some luck there.

I would go in assuming there's not a drop in Marsh Valley right now.

@Stupawx
Marsh Valley is totally dry. If your backpacking, you can setup camp there, then hike over to Charlebois to gather your water. If you're looping counter clockwise you can get water, at 2nd water, on day 2.
You aren't late if you don't show up!
