Anza-Borrego Desert: Arroyo Salado North Fork Mile 37.4

Rating *****
Length 3.4 mile (Round trip) - 2 Hour (Round trip). Easy/Moderate.
Elevation 690 - 960 feet
Access All cars, park roadside at mile 37.4.

A typical hike in the Truckhaven area.

At the West side of the "bridge" go down into the wash below and hike up the wash (North). That's the most difficult part of this short and easy hike.

A winding sandy wash and a couple of forks.
All forks to the north end the same way, by huge sand/mud-stone boulders and very steep terrain.

This is a nice area to explore.
