Lost Dog Wash Trailhead
Scottsdale, AZ, United States
STATUS
Built
YEAR
2006
Lost Dog Wash Trailhead exemplifies a commitment to environmental stewardship through its preservation of native habitat, sustainable building materials, and natural resource conservation. The structures are nested into the landscape and incorporate materials that blend with the natural desert environment.
The trailhead’s rammed earth walls are constructed from material excavated during foundation construction, reflecting a harmonious use of on-site resources. Gray water and rainwater harvesting systems provide 75,000 gallons of water annually for landscape irrigation, promoting water conservation in the arid desert climate.
A roof-integrated 3,000-watt solar electric array powers the trailhead facilities, making the site completely self-sufficient and independent of the electric grid. This innovative approach to design and sustainability ensures that Lost Dog Wash Trailhead remains a model for environmentally conscious development, preserving the beauty and integrity of the desert landscape while providing essential amenities for visitors
