Hi, does anyone have recommendations for campsite locations near the mouth of, or within Hell Hole Canyon?

Thanks.

There's a popular camping area just a couple hundred yards up Aravaipa Creek from the Hells Hole confluence. In the event that area is occupied (though there's probably room for every permit holder in the canyon!) about a quarter mile farther upstream you will find another great option on the opposite side of the creek.

Agree with Chum. There is one site in Deer Creek about a half mile before hell hole I can think of as well but it's fairly small (it's also a fair bit colder in the canyon) and views are better outside of the canyon/you can hammock if that's your thing.

I would not recommend within Hell Hole Canyon (Deer Creek). There are few to none, safe escape areas should floods occur. Sheer cliffs of a hundred feet.
