If you are a city dweller and looking to ‘get away from it all’ there is a place where water runs through thousand foot canyon walls year round, wildlife including desert bighorn sheep and over 200 species of birds live among shady cottonwoods, and its only a couple of hours from both Tucson and Phoenix. This is the Aravaipa Canyon Wilderness.
