Description

You can gather water at Hildale’s City Park…near base of the canyon…where the community has tapped the spring water. There’s taps with levers to turn on the flow. If you want to hike to the source…you can do that also…a couple mile hike..but beautiful. The flow is continuous at the spring itself and flowing year round At the park…there are levers… to turn on the flow http://www.zionnational-park.com/zion-canaan-mountain.htm

There is water riddled throughout Caanan Mountain and the surrounding National Park area…if you hike the trails you’ll find springs popping up everywhere…feeding the abundant wildlife. Sawmill Springs is just the main one.

Nearest Address

Hildale is located on Arizona Highway 389 between Fredonia, Arizona and Hurricane, Utah. Hildale is a polygamist settlement at the southern base of Canaan Mountain that encompass the small towns of Colorado City, Arizona and Hildale, Utah. The two towns are really one community, but the state line runs through them, dividing them. The population is just under 2000. Trailhead – Hildale, Arizona is located just off AZ Highway 389 between Hurricane, Utah and Fredonia, Arizona. From the highway, enter Hildale using Utah Avenue. Follow the paved road for about 3-miles, looking for the dirt road on the right that leads to Water Canyon. If you see Hildale’s city park then you have missed the road to Water Canyon. There is an intersection a little more than a half-mile up the dirt road. Stay left at the intersection. There is a small reservoir about 2 miles up the road. Continue to the end of the road where there is an unsigned parking area for the Water Canyon Trail.

27th street, Ogden, UT, 84404

Directions from Nearest Address

Take 27th street East to the mountain, park and follow the right hand side trail (with a long gate), traveling south east and upwards into the trees. Listen closely because you should be able to hear the running stream of water, which will lead you to the spring. (Note: I have been drinking this water for a year, and it’s the best water ever.)
