| no partners | | On a whim I decided to head out to Sheep Bridge to check it out. I've never had the chance to go out there, and didn't have much info. Took an hour and a half to get up to Bloody Basin Road, and then an hour or so to do the remaining 12 miles down Tangle Creek to the river.
After parking, we decided to walk around a bit and check out the area. Didn't take like to find the hot springs, and we decided we should definitely save enough time to chill there after the jog.
After crossing over the bridge, we just decided to head north on Verde River Trail until we hit a certain time, and then turn around. It was surprisingly warm, despite the time of year, so I can't imagine this would be pleasant much of the year... The trail wasn't too hard to follow, and probably gets more use than I would've expected. We even ran into a group of hikers on their way to stay the night at Wet Bottom Creek.
We turned around about a mile before Wet Bottom, and headed back to the bridge. Enjoyed a brew while soaking in the hot springs, and then headed back on the road. And then the real adventure started when I decided to take the road through New River Canyon... |
