SIGNAL HILL PETROGLYPHS
Distance: 0.5 miles round trip
Location: Signal Hill Picnic Area on the Bajada Loop Drive
On this short trail you will walk uphill to a nice little viewpoint over the park.
Along the way, and on the rocks on top of the hill, you get to see the rock art, or petroglyphs, drawn by the Hohokam people over 800 years ago.
PRO TRAVEL TIP: Beware of rattlesnakes, gila monsters, and scorpions. Always look before you step and stay on the trail. Never put your hands or feet under rocks or in hidden places. We never saw a wild rattlesnake inside of the park, but one did slither across the sidewalk at the Arizona Sonora Desert Museum.
