Hwy 35 and HWY15 is at risk for flash flooding. Please exercise caution while traveling and check the latest weather updates before your trip. Don't drown, turn around!
Monsoon Season Flash Flooding
As we begin the North American Monsoon season it is important to remember that this weather brings sudden storms, lightning, and flash flood risk to the Gila. Check forecasts before visiting, avoid canyons during rain, expect rapidly changing conditions.
Heat Advisory
Heat illnesses occur often on the Cliff Dwellings Trail—even with an active monsoon season. Always carry and drink plenty of water—at least 1 liter. Dehydration and heat illness can happen quickly, even on short hikes. Be prepared and hike early.
