Off-road Adventure - Wickenburg Arizona's Box Canyon

We're taking the jeep for an off-road adventure this weekend. If you travel up the Hassayampa River just north of Wickenburg, you can enjoy the shady Box Canyon. And, if there are no rattlesnakes, a picnic is in order.

Just northwest of Phoenix, Arizona is a desert river that rises from the depths of the desert sand and then disappears again. Thus, it is called "the upside down river." The Hassayampa River originates in the Bradshaw Mountains and flows, mostly underground, through Wickenburg, Arizona. This riparian habitat is a fascinating place to visit.
