Tanque Verde Falls can be a treacherous place.

Authorities are trying to locate an injured hiker in Tanque Verde Falls Saturday afternoon.

The 26-year-old hiker dislocated his shoulder while hiking with his cousin along one of the trails at about 4:10 p.m., said Deputy Daniel Jelineo, a Pima County Sheriff's Department spokesman.

The cousin relayed their location to authorities in a call for help.

Jelineo said the man is not at further risk of injury.
