Elephant Canyon--Needles District

by tripdog » Fri Nov 13, 2015 3:15 am

Hello-

Anyone been in this canyon recently and know the conditions? There is supposed to be a spring near EC3 and wondering if it's still possible to pull water from it or if it's frozen completely. Any other info would be much appreciated as well. The rangers don't seem to know a lot about it as of late. Heading in on the 20th for 4 days.

Thanks!

There may be some ice in the mornings, but water sources are unlikely to be frozen. The area has had a fair amount of rain lately, so there should be water in scattered locations.
