BACKPACKING CAMPSITE
Campsite is one mile from the trailhead.
The first 1/2 mile (.8 km) is fairly steep, after which the trail becomes moderately difficult. The Pinnacles trail is well maintained and easy to follow all year. The pinnacles trail is the steeper, yet shorter route to the High Chisos backcountry and the South Rim area.
Large circular and secluded site with a tree in the middle. Not much shade in the afternoon but great shade in the morning from mountains.
Nice views of Casa Grande & Toll Mountain. All sites have nice sunset views.
Maximum 6 people, 3 tents.
Hammocks are prohibited.
Bears and other animals are frequently seen in this area. Do not leave food, or other items unattended.
No wood or ground fires permitted.
There is NO water available in the Juniper Flat area. The closest water is at the Basin Visitor Center spigot. Always carry adequate water for cooking, drinking, and washing (suggested 1 gallon (4 l)/person/24 hours).
