Encinoso Details
Although this place is considerably smaller than other swimming destinations in the area, it is still worth visiting just to see the spectacular backdrop of giant canyons. Not to mention, its small size prevents it from becoming overcrowded even during peak summer months and weekends. To reach the pool, you will have to do a little bouldering and scrambling down a few big rocks. You will know you are close once you hear the babbling stream of Oak Creek.
