SUMMARY:Rockhouse Canyon Anza Borrego
DESCRIPTION:Overnight trip up Rockhouse Canyon\nDid this last year and found the spring! Hike up Rockhouse Canyon to a wonderful campsite among the cottonwoods. \nDescription from Afoot and Afield:\nRockhouse Canyon and the broad\, sloping alluvial basin drained by it-informally known as Rockhouse Valley -constitute one of Southern California’s truly forgotten places. Prior to the 20th century\, Cahuilla Indian villages thrived here. After the Cahuilla moved to the nearby Santa Rosa Indian Reservation around 1900\, a few hardy prospectors made forays into the area\, traveling along the ancient footpaths and\, in some cases\, living in the old rock houses built by the Cahuilla. Today\, there is\nstill no road beyond the lower reaches of Rockhouse Canyon. The closest inhabited place is several miles away. \nTrack from last year\nSpring location\nI plan on camping somewhere in Clark Valley on Friday night. Then on Saturday morning we can caravan to the trailhead. The road to the trailhead is rough\, last year a Subaru Outback was able to get 2.5 miles from the end of the road and my Lexus GX was able to get to 1.5 miles. I don’t know what the condition of the road is this year. I plan on driving out there sometime in the next two weeks to check it out and chose a location for camping Friday night. \nMileage: ~20 miles round trip and 3400ft elevation gain (assuming we are able to drive as far as last year) \nWeather: https://forecast.weather.gov/MapClick.php?lon=-116.3696721127042&lat=33.45765553887085#.Y1IWkOzMJyA \nDISCLAIMER: Hike at your own risk. Be responsible for yourself and your safety. Make good decisions. With any trip\, things can change\, reservations can get lost\, the unexpected can happen. A go-with-the-flow attitude is always a good thing\, and most importantly\, let’s all have fun! This is an advanced hike. Make sure you are in good enough physical shape for the distance\, elevation changes\, and terrain. The hike leaders in this group aren’t professional hike leaders.
