Hieroglyphic Mountain Loop

This route has many highlights. Make sure to bring the camera for great desert scape photos. The Boulder OHV area is free to use and offers camping, bathrooms, and an OHV practice arena for kids. Quickly you'll find an optional obstacle, a small-waterfall for some shenanigans that allows you to get some flex on. Just after the waterfall you will find an old windmill with a larger area to make a stop. This trail takes you through sandy washes and up to the tops of roller-coaster-like peaks with breathtaking views. This is a very narrow trail when climbing the high peaks that give a bit of the pucker factor with little to no room for turn arounds. You descend back down into the wash and end the loop where you began -- making it nice for vehicles that are towed to the trail head or if you are camping out.
