"It had been 55 + years since I visited during a school field trip here. Brought back some amazing memories. Was very happy to see these rocks still here. The sad thing is the sign indicating where these are is very weathered and not legible at all... But they are here and they are right where you can see the snake river flow bay... What a great diversity in ancient geological / archeological sites we have less than an hour away from treasure valley."
"It’s located next to the road. It’s easily accessible. I wish I knew what some of those petroglyphs symbols mean. I’m sure the story is very interesting."
"I have always wanted to see a petroglyph and this one is right on the side of the road... definitely worth visiting, if in the area. Parking is limited though, to a couple of vehicles. We happened to visit at an ideal time... to witness such a rich vibrant sunset!"
"We were disappointed in this part of our exploring. The petroglyph is easy to find. It’s big rock. Right on the side of the road. You’ll need good light to see drawings well. Very limited parking. 1 car on each side of the road, no parking lot. Sign is missing so no history or info. Path to other petroglyphs not marked and not traveled often since the spring/summer. Disappointment"
