I begin the hike up the road to Cottonwood Canyon and Cottonwood Spring, at the base of the New York Mountains

I'll walk about two miles to reach Cottonwood Spring. At this time of year, there's a good chance that the spring might still be flowing, so I've brought my water filter and two empty bottles in case I can get some water there. I could use the extra water because I drank more yesterday on the way here than expected.
