Don't enter Cottonwood Wash if a storm is approaching, you don't want to be stuck here during a flash flood
You can try to get over this boulder, but it is far easier to just take off your backpack and squeeze through the gap underneath
Getting over the trunk in the middle of this photo and down on the other side can be very challenging.
