(visited by Ross Finlayson)

28-Dec-1999 -- This confluence is especially interesting, as it's located within Arizona's beautiful "Organ Pipe Cactus National Monument", just 4 miles north of the US-Mexican border.

A 53-mile long gravel road (Puerto Blanco Road) forms a loop within the park. Fortunately, this road passes just 0.9 miles to the East of the confluence point. If you park beside the road at this point, you can reach the confluence with an easy hike: first across a small wash, then across a small rocky ridge.
