AZ LONGSHOREMAN TRIP REPORTS Cherry Creek & Cold Springs Canyon Trip leader: Dave Brown, Date: Oct. 9th & 10th, 2010 Fall colors are back and it is again time for Thanksgiving with good friends and family like the Mesa 4 Wheelers. No matter if you go to California with Mike or stay here we will all enjoy our time. The enjoyment of 4 wheeling has long been a pleasure of mine, and with friends like the Mesa 4 Wheelers it is with pride that I enjoy it more. Our Christmas party is almost here so get your reservations in as The Sierra Ancha Cliff Dwellings, once home to the prehistoric soon as you can! Salado Indians, are located in some of the most remote and hard to reach spots in the state of Arizona. Because of this, they See you on the trail, Darrel... receive very few visitors and remain in pristine condition. Cherry Creek & Cold Springs Canyon (Continued) After years of viewing this area from the driver's seat of my Jeep, the desire to someday see these ruins close up stayed with me. The opportunity arrived when Dave Brown invited the club to join him and his son, Matt, on a hike in the Sierra Ancha to visit the Salado Indian Cliff Dwellings. Where did the trail go? Fortunately Dave and Matt had just hiked this trail the day before, otherwise at this point I would have questions whether this was an actual trail? Dave, his son Matt and I make a stop along Cherry Creek Road to take in the view of these rugged mountains that make up the Sierra Ancha Wilderness. Dave had called me Friday night from atop Aztec Peak to tell me to be sure to come dressed in long pants. He did not say anything about a long sleeve shirt! Dave and Matt arrived the day before and chose Cold Springs Canyon Ruins to do a pre-hike. Dave points his hiking poles to a petroglyph that indicates the direction of Cold Springs Canyon Ruin. Cherry Creek & Cold Springs Canyon (Continued) Some History: The Sierra Ancha (Spanish for "Wide Mountain") is an archaelogically rich wilderness area known for some remarkable cliff dwellings made famous by Dr. Emil W. Haury and the Gila Pueblo Project in 1930. Dr. Richard C. Lange has continued that legacy with the Sierra Ancha Project starting in 1981 and continuing to present day. Dewey Peterson was a rancher who lived on Aztec Peak circa 1900 - 1950. Peterson went on to serve as Dr. Emil W. Haury's guide during many of the Gila Pueblo Project expeditions. On one particular excursion, another local rancher, "Slim" Ellison accompanied the Gila Pueblo Project expedition as described by Haury; "From the Peterson Ranch, we went north to McFadden Horse Mountain, and several other parts of the crest of the Sierra Ancha. Then we dropped off the east side of the range, north of Pueblo Canyon and into Cherry Creek where we established camp. From our camp in Cherry Creek, we went back up into Pueblo Canyon, into Cold Spring Canyon, and into Devil's Chasm. After collecting wood in ruins in each of those canyons, we set out to the east, passing south of Sombrero Butte, and on into lower Canyon Creek. After inspecting a prehistoric turquoise mine, we went up Canyon Creek to the Canyon Creek Ruin, which Dewey knew about, but had not seen. We returned cross- country, almost due west, and dropped back into Cherry Creek to the Ellison Ranch, where we ended the adventure". After 2 hours of constant up hill climbing through thick desert After several similar expeditions into the Sierra Ancha, Haury brush, we finally reach Cold Springs Canyon Ruins! published his findings in 1934 as Gila Pueblo Medallion Paper #14. His seminal publication, "The Canyon Creek Ruin and Cliff Dwellings of the Sierra Ancha" was published later in the same year. You can connect to the past by viewing the remains of the Peterson Ranch near Aztec Peak. The Ellison Ranch is still a going concern within Cherry Creek valley. Many of my favorite Cherry Creek hiking destinations are documented in Dr. Rich Lange's recent publication; "Echoes in the Canyons - the Archaeology of the Southeastern Sierra Ancha" celebrating the 25th anniversary of the Sierra Ancha Project (SAP). The SAP began in June of 1981 from a small grant by the University of Arizona Research Office to verify and update site information originally catalogued by Gila Pueblo. It soon became clear that the original scope of the project was larger than anticipated as many new sites were discovered and the project was stitched together piecemeal over the first 25 years of operation. One of the first major undertakings of the SAP was a main beam replacement in Cold Spring Canyon site. The main roof beam was severely damaged by insects and water and the structure was in danger of complete collapse. In late October of 1983, a replacement beam was dragged up the old mining road by a horse. A pulley system was used to transport the beam up the scree slopes from the abandoned mining road trail to the terrace ledge near the cliff dwelling. It took 4 people to accomplish the final task of lifting the beam across the terrace ledge and into position within the cliff dwelling. When one ponders the magnitude of the task in present day, you have to marvel at the determination of 700 year old civil engineering to construct these Cherry Creek cliff dwellings. There were a number of times during the hike that I questioned whether or not I was going to make it all the way. Thanks to Randal Schulhauser (11/10/07) Dave and Matt's patience and encouraging words, I made it! http://hikearizona.com/decoder.php?ZTN=1260 Dave asked me to hold up the victory sign! Cherry Creek & Cold Springs Canyon (Continued) Camping above the ruins, on top of Aztec Peak, the next morning we awoke to clear Arizona skies, temperatures in the low 50's, and 30+ mile per hour winds! Fortunately Dave and Matt came prepared for any weather with their Scamp trailer! After a warm breakfast from Dave's kitchen, the winds soon had died down to where we able to enjoy a comfortable morning walk before heading down the mountain.

During the war years, the troop strength reached 30,000 men at the fort, which in the 1930s had been described as suitable for a brigade-sized unit of about 10,000 men. At war’s end, the fort was declared surplus and transferred to the State of Arizona. It was reactivated during the Korean War by the Army Engineers. A new era began in 1954 when control passed to the Chief Signal Officer, who found the area and climate ideal for testing electronic and communications equipment. The importance of the fort in the national defense picture grew steadily from that moment. In 1967, Fort Huachuca became the headquarters of the U.S. Army Strategic Communications Command.

Bonar, Norman Mercado-Silva, and David Rogowski Fisheries Research Report 02-10 Support Provided by: 1 Habitat use by the fishes of a southwestern desert stream: Cherry Creek, Arizona By Scott A. Bonar, Norman Mercado-Silva, and David Rogowski USGS Arizona Cooperative Fish and Wildlife Research Unit School of Natural Resources and the Environment 325 Biological Sciences East University of Arizona Tucson AZ 85721 USGS Arizona Cooperative Fish and Wildlife Unit Fisheries Research Report 02-10 Funding provided by: United States Department of Agriculture Forest Service With additional support from: School of Natural Resources and the Environment, University of Arizona Arizona Department of Game and Fish United States Geological Survey 2 Executive Summary Fish communities in the Southwest U.S. face numerous threats of anthropogenic origin. Most importantly, declining instream flows have impacted southwestern stream fish assemblages. Maintenance of water flows that sustain viable fish communities is key in maintaining the ecological function of river ecosystems in arid regions. Efforts to calculate the optimal amount of water that will ensure long-term viability of species in a stream community require that the specific habitat requirements for all species in the community be known. Habitat suitability criteria (HSC) are used to translate structural and hydraulic characteristics of streams into indices of habitat quality for fishes. Habitat suitability criteria summarize the preference of fishes for numerous habitat variables. We estimated HSC for water depth, water velocity, substrate, and water temperature for the fishes of Cherry Creek, Arizona, a perennial desert stream.

Many heartfelt thanks to John, his wife Susun, and his young boating partner Josh Wheeler for performing the entire field work for this guide. Special thanks to John for his decades of advocacy in support of a healthy Verde River. Photo courtesy of Gary Beverly This section of the Verde River Paddle Trail covers 31 river miles from the Highway 89A Bridgeport Bridge to Beasley Flat. The guide is composed of nine map segments, each with a corresponding descriptive narrative of GPS waypoints. A vicinity map shows how the segment maps provide coverage of each river reach, and a waypoint table provides GPS coordinates for the waypoints used in this guide. Note that much of this section of river is located on private property. Please respect the rights of these property owners during your paddle trip; it is an act of trespass to disembark and enter riverside properties. Plan your river trip accordingly and leave the river on public lands only. The Verde River is a dynamic natural resource. Water levels, channel obstructions and many other factors can change on a daily basis. River recreationists are advised to practice Safe Paddling. 1 Verde River Paddle Trail Highway 89A Bridge to Beasley Flat Safe Paddling • Never paddle alone • Inform friends and/or family of your paddling plans • Check conditions before you go • Dress appropriately for the expected weather • Wear a life jacket • Know your watercraft’s limitations • Paddle within your skill level • Avoid high, swift water • Scout any hazard about which you have doubts.
