    Tips

    The Ice Box waterfall towers over the canyon floor. Fed from snowmelt and rainwater from the mountains above, water in the winter, spring, and summer - during the monsoon season - pours from a gap at the top of the canyon, filling several pools below. This shady waterfall is a must see in Red Rock Canyon! You can choose which pools you feel comfortable carefully scrambling to (and if you do choose to scramble, sticking to the left when facing the waterfall offers the path of least resistance), but please refrain from swimming in them; they are important sources of water that are not only are vital for the survival of many animals in the area, but tree frogs and fairy shrimp lay their eggs in the waters. In the spring and summer you can see tadpoles swimming around! This impressive, multi-tiered waterfall is an amazing way to end your hike.
