O'Dell Hidden Cove Park - Some of the first petroglyphs we came across, look out for snakes!

This is truly, a hidden gem! You cannot access this petroglyph site and area on your own. You need…read moreto make a reservation in advance, with the tour guide for the City of Holbrook. More information is available on the City of Holbrook website under "parks". Currently, the tour guide is Darlene, a Rock Symbols Researcher, and she can be reached at 928-241-1324. She is fundamental in the preservation of this site. I met Darlene at the golf course clubhouse, which is at the end of Gold Course Rd. There you sign a waiver, and the fee for the tour is $25 cash per person. Make sure you have cash with you, as there is not an ATM on site. The city of Holbrook website does not explain a lot of this, so, when you speak with your tour guide, make sure all of your questions are answered prior to your visit. From the golf course, you follow Darlene in your vehicle on dirt roads, so a vehicle that's possible on a fairly decent dirt road, is needed. These roads do have locked gates, so do not try to access on your own. If you have time, she will take you around the birding pond, and then to the petroglyph site. For the petroglyph site, make sure you are wearing decent hiking boots/shoes, as the trails are challenging with rock-climbing, and pants, as there are shrubs that can scratch you. Also, wear sunscreen, bring an adequate amount of water, a snack, some TP or a napkin in case you need to pee pee, and I would recommend a hat and binoculars, as some of the glyphs are up high. Many of these Anasazi glyphs are in wonderful shape and from different time periods. My tour guide, Darlene, was just amazing in pointing out the glyphs, describing what they possibly mean, and the history of the property. Darlene also spoke of her documentation of these glyphs, as well as others, as there is really no way to preserve them. There is very little vandalism at this site, which is a plus! My experience on this Earth Day, was so educational, peaceful, and truly enjoyable! The Anasazi had it right, leave no footprint behind unless they're petroglyphs!

The tour and Darlene's information about the site, Arizona archaeology and the cultures associated…read morewere very interesting.
