Really neat seeing the etches and carvings! Never knew about petroglyphs. I searched for attractions on the Google maps and this place popped up and it sounded interesting, so we took the drive out to check out. We were really amazed at the cool etches that were drawn so long ago. The interpretive walk was fun and it got our kids excited to find the next number marker. There were 15 total markings for each petroglyph. Very neat place to explore! We saw 3 small lizards and also spotted some cactus. We have never seen cactus up close before. We all had such a great time! 🦎 🌵😄 There are warning signs to watch for rattlesnakes and to stay on trail. 🐍We didn't see any and didn't run into anything that would harm us.

A sacred place for Native Americans and for me as well. Excellent maintained petroglyphs on the stone walls, beautiful and like out of this world. You should leave your car in a parking lot beside the visitor center (the beginning of May- it was closed, as if it was still not the season) and follow the directions on the sign. You will find the path easily, you should follow the track and its numbers (as I remember,14 of them). Each number is put on a separate plate in front of the petroglyph. The surroundings are marvellous. Even if the visitor center is closed, there is a metal box and you can find the leaflets inside and the guest book. There is a toilet in the parking lot. Highly recommend this place, this is sth...
