Once you reach the canyon, follow the drainage downstream. In approximately 1 mile, you will encounter an impassable pour off. After another mile, a large side canyon joins the main canyon on the left . It is surrounded by large cottonwood trees and usually has a large plunge pool at the bottom. Please use this water sparingly and do not pollute it with soaps, lotions, etc.
Swimming is discouraged.
You may camp in the vicinity, but do not camp right next to the spring. From the spring, the junction of Chimney Rock Canyon is 1.5 miles downstream. This junction is marked with a sign. At this point, you can continue down the canyon 9 miles through Lower Spring Canyon to the Fremont River or you can exit the canyon via Chimney Rock Canyon and the Chimney Rock Trail. It is 4 miles from the spring to the Chimney Rock parking area.
