The 11 miles of Big Bonito Creek rise in elevation from 5,250 to 7,000 feet. Visitors can hike or backpack down to the creek. The creek flows through the Bonito Prairie, with canyon walls filled with oak, willow, and cottonwood trees. Cool, clear waters spill over the rocks into the pools of brown and rainbow trout.
The area has spectacular beauty and many hunters come during the seasons for mountain lion, bear, and javelina.
