Protocols in Oak Creek Canyon | How to Preserve
the Legacy

There are tens of thousands of visitors to Oak Creek Canyon annually, so in order to preserve the integrity of the Canyon environment, and the quality of water in Oak Creek, there must be rules (we call them "protocols") for everyone to understand and follow.

As a visitor, you should be aware that litter is to be taken out of the Canyon with you, or deposited into a trash receptacle, and the creek is not to be used as a bathroom, nor is the forest.

This is a large part of what the Oak Creek Watershed Council is all about....preserving the Canyon for our children, and yours... and their children!

Please read Care Bear's protocols as well as our personal message to you. If you are visiting the Canyon with family, or friends, please share our web site with them and become a Canyon Ambassador for us.

That's all we ask... we'll do the rest.

We hope you enjoy your visit.
