Horsethief Springs/Cabin

Horsethief Springs offers excellent bird and wildlife viewing. This perennial spring provides life giving water for resident wildlife and migrating birds alike. Wildlife viewing is best during early morning and evening hours. Birds tend to gather in thick vegetation, along washes and springs, where vegetation provides critical food and shelter. It is prohibited to camp or occupy this area for more than 30 minutes.
