Managed to get a couple of hikes in before knee surgery. Headed out to the Eagletails with 9L. Saturday morning starting from the Ben Avery Trail hiked into the range past Courthouse Rock. Good trail in open desert for the first few miles.

Eventually we left the trail and dropped into a wash leading to Indian Spring our basic objective. Along the way we passed some decent petroglyphs and passed a few pools of good water if we needed any. At the spring area and not really sure the exact location of the spring there were more pools and a small tickle in spots.

After a break decided to continue hiking downstream in the wash just to check it out. Found more petroglyphs and the canyon became more narrow with nice canyon walls. I believe we went about ¾ of a mile past Indian Spring before turning around.

Another break and we returned back the way we hiked in. Back at the trailhead we searched for a campsite nearby in the vicinity of Courthouse Rock. We setup camp and chilled rest of the evening!
