Yes, usually there was water in the canyons below. Sometimes it was seasonal water. They also had rain and snow melt. They sometimes channeled and or collected water from the cliffs or used check dams. Rock pools, and water seepage would get them through droughts. The elevation of most sites in quite high so snow melt would be retained in the soil with careful management.
