Petroglyph Spring was a lot prettier than I was expecting! The Petroglyphs were very neat. The hike up wasn't too bad even though you have to climb over some boulders to get to the actual spring. Watch out for wasps and bees. We had the place to ourselves on a Friday evening which was surprising but awesome! I'd definitely visit again when there is more water in the spring.

Perfect hike, trail has gradual increase in elevation making this a medium easy hike. Nice views canyon keeps sun off for a bit in the morning.

Nope

My dog hasn't been on many hiking adventures but I'm thinking of taking her here.... would this be a difficult hike for a beginner pup? She's a 2 y.o. German.... for example are there a lot of large rocks she might have a hard time climbing over?

The large rocks are towards the end, near the water, so if not able to go over them will have completed about 95% of the trail. It is not a long trail, many people bring their dogs and they seem to enjoy it.

Anyone know where the waterfall is ?

Its right at the main glyphs, but yes most likely not running at this time. Go during or after a rain. Just stay out of the washes if its raining at the time in case of flash flooding.
