As one of its wettest weekends of weather recedes into Verde Valley history, there remains an escape from the dry heat in the deep waters of Camp Verde, Cottonwood and Sedona. Three pools in each area beckon both residents and visitors to take the plunge in the many natural swimming holes created by the Verde River, Oak Creek and their tributaries.
For more information on camping, fire and other restrictions and these and other swimming holes in the area, contact the Red Rock Ranger District at 203-2900.
For more photos and the full story, please see the Wednesday, May 27, issues of the Camp Verde Journal and Cottonwood Journal Extra.
