Sycamore Canyon Ruin

GPS planning file and map.

The Sycamore Canyon Ruin is a cliff dwelling that is about 11 miles north of Clarkdale, Arizona. The ruin is within the Sycamore Canyon Wilderness Area. There are a series of Forest Service Road that look like they would get you within a mile of the ruin but what we are showing here is getting there via the Packard Trail beginning at the Parsons Trailhead. For turn-by-turn directions enter ‘Parsons Trailhead, Parson Spring Trail’ into your driving app. The trail as we are showing it is 6.5 miles one-way. The exact route to take once you get close to the ruins is undetermined.

Included with this post is the GPS file and map that we plan to use for our first visit. If you don't want to wait for us to get around to it feel free to try the GPS file and map for yourself. With no guarantee, of course, but they most often prove valuable for us.
