La Madre Springs trail starts at the Willow Springs Parking lot. If you have 4-wheel drive vehicle, you can drive up Rocky Gap Road and park closer to the beginning of the trail, or you can drive up Rocky Gap Road that goes in the opposite direction of La Madre Springs trail near the trailhead sign.
This tail is a 3.6 mile an up and back hike that is mostly uphill to the dam and then back down to the trail head. The views are amazing from grey and white striated mountains in one directions, to red and white sandstone cliffs and amazing white bumping cliffs in the other directions.
You can also hike up Rocky Gap Road for some amazing views of the valley below and steep, rocky cliffs forming deep rocky washes. Keep your eyes out for deer and bighorn sheep.
