First time hiking this trail.

Currently reading "Landscape of the Spirits - Hohokam Rock Art at South Mountain Park" by Todd Bostwick and Peter Krocek. Armed with some of their "inside" information, set out on a hike along the Geronimo Trail searching for glyphs with our desert puppy - Skippy.

Only spotted a couple of glyphs, but did mark upper and lower Hieroglyphic Canyon. This canyon reportedly has 105 panels. The lower canyon is on Boy Scout's property, but the upper canyon appears to have several side trail leading in to it. Guess there will be a return visit to check it out...


Had GPS with me and will forward route to Joe for posting.
