The Pothole are brilliant to check out, and hey, Lacosca Creek is a delightful local stream.
But wait, there's more cool stuff to do in the Sierra Madre. There's so much to do here at Agua Blanca Trail that you need to camp here for a while, Tin Can Cabin Campground is a great
spot for that, and Halfway Spring is always fun to check out. Having a delightful time in the Sierra Madre is painless. Devils Potrero is a charming site any time of year, and if you're looking for some flowing water? Try Sulphur Creek. Not far from Agua Blanca Trail you stumble
on Nugget Point, and Big Narrows is a fine spot to spend some time.
Be careful coming to Agua Blanca Trail, you might not ever wanna go home again. Cobblestone Spring is a scenic spot to stop at while you're at Agua Blanca Trail; get wet paddling on Piru Creek. There's a forest here at Agua Blanca Trail called Kenney Groye.
