The access to this site is now closed off by the rancher with multiple “no trespassing” signs. The three interpretative signs are still up above the wash near the road, but to get in you have to hike up the south drainage, cross over the ridge on the ATV road and then walk down the Cottonwood drainage to the site (which is what I did). This took a total of 4 hours and it was a total of 5 miles—but I just crossed over the rancher’s gates w/o permission to get back to my car. The images are worth it and there are ones on both sides of the canyon although most are on the south facing rocks.
My hike lasted so long too because I was looking around all the time for images. Found some further east up the drainage but few in number.

It was winter. No flowers but lots of water in the drainage.
