  • This is a look at the Salt River recreation area in Mesa Arizona. Out here on the salt river you may find wild horses, water sports, tubing, kayaking, fishing and lots and lots of sunshine. In todays series we head out to the Salt River stop at Phon D Sutton, Coon Bluff, Pebble Beach and then head up to Saguaro Lake to show you guys around the damn and the guest ranch up that way. The river is located in Mesa which is apart of Phoenix Metro.

    Living in Arizona is quite a unique experience because of the vastness that the state offers. From the Sonoran Desert in the south to the high country in the north all the way up towards the Four Corners east and the Grand Canyon in the west. Known as the Grand Canyon state, Arizona is diverse in many ways. The state tree is the Palo Verde, the state cactus is the Saguaro, the state bird is the Cactus wren.

We get the Annual National Parks, Arizona State Parks and Maricopa County Regional Park passes every year.

    While tubing one early morning a herd of horses crossed right in front of me. The adults went up onto the bank leaving a foal behind. I had to stop and get off my tube so I wouldn't run into the baby. The adults grazing on the bank looked casually over to see what was going on then went back to grazing. The foal stood for a couple minutes looking at me then followed the adults.
    Most exciting adventure ever!!

    Be careful flying your drone on the salt river, especially up near the “water users recreation area” as there are nesting bald eagles in the area and they will abandon their nests if bothered too much.

    As someone that lives right down the street from there, done about 25 river trips this year. Not once have there not been plenty of horses while paddle boarding the river. Will out out there tomorrow. Also, passes are $8 at just about any local store/gas station. It is $12 at the site because of the kiosk fee. Can also get yearly passes, or use your America the Beautiful pass for access.
