Waterfalls west of Cedar Ridge
This site is recommended for
high-clearance vehicles only. If you have kids or pets along, KEEP a
close eye on them!
From highway 89 at Cedar Ridge, AZ turn
west on Indian Route 6110. The coordinates for the turn-off
are 36˚ 23.527' N & 111˚ 31.518' W. This is just north
of mile post 505. At this turn-off there are some remains of a building
(just some concrete slabs). All distances are measured from the cattle
guard where the pavement ends.
Take this dirt road for 16.8 miles. You will go past Shinumo Alter (A
huge mesa that will be on the right.). You will come to a "Y" in the
road at this point ( 36˚ 27.342' N & 111˚ 47.115' W). Go to the left on
the "trail" and follow it for 3.8miles to another "Y" (36˚ 29.671' N & 111˚ 49.651'
W). Head left which
will take you right to the edge. There are some concrete slabs here one
of which has a "Salt River Project" benchmark stamped "REDWALL". From
This vantage point you can look upstream and across the river to the
waterfall.
Don't forget to bring your camera and
Binoculars.
