Hi All - I'm planning a 6-day backpacking trip through Rockhouse Valley for next week and I'm hoping someone might be able to give me some tips for finding the spring that's near the Cottonwood Camp at the upper Rockhouse ruins. From what I can tell it's down in the canyon from the bench. The USGS map puts it on the west side of the canyon but Schad describes it as "200 yards east of the main canyon in a tributary ravine". The Lindsays also describe it on the east side. I'm guessing it's somewhere around 33.492784,-116.41761. Am I close? With all the recent rains and patches of snow still on Toro Peak I'm thinking it should be pretty reliable. Thoughts? Also how much can I count on Toro Spring? Any info would be much appreciated. Thanks!
Mark
