Hike to Hackberry Spring in the Superstition Wilderness, Arizona.
From the parking area, go through the break in the fence and start walking along the wide trail. This trail will relatively quickly drop into a wash, where you'll stay for the duration of the hike. The route finding can be tricky, but if you stay along this wash, continue to follow it down, you'll reach Hackberry spring after about 2 miles of hiking. Stay left at the first wash junction (JCT_1L on the map), stay right at the next junction (JCT_2R on the map), left again at the third junction (JCT_3L on the map) and left on more time (JCT_4L on the map). The final section enters a pretty and high walled canyon. The spring (Spring on the map) is on the right side of the wash and difficult to see from the wash.
