Carney Springs / Wave Cave trailhead permanently closing.
This has always been a bit of a questionable parking location due to its status on state trust land.
Pinal County will be closing this down and shifting the parking access for these trails to the Lost Goldmine lot.
I can't wait to see how this goes!
(There are 7 official routes on HAZ that currently begin at this lot).
