Wet Beaver Wilderness
Located in the Coconino National Forest in Arizona.
Wet Beaver is a steep-walled canyon cutting into the rim of the Colorado Plateau. Supai sandstone and shale form striking red cliffs along the lower canyon.
This wilderness is a benchmark of pristine riparian habitats and excellent water quality, an excellent example of one of Arizona's finest and rarest resources, a perennially flowing desert stream. Opportunities for primitive recreation are further enhanced by the narrow twisting character of the canyon, which offers seclusion, even with relatively high use. Two major trails, Apache Maid and Bell Trail, offer easy access to the rim country portions of this wilderness.
