Trail Overview

Rather than staying on the main road to Cutler Point from the Crocodile Trailhead, you can take this short side excursion to petroglyphs carved on a wall along the trail. They are a short hike up the hill once you have parked at the top of the short side trail. The glyphs are starting to fade, so be sure to treat the area with respect. If you look closely, you can identify people, snakes, deer, and many other figures. With a little exploration to the west of the main glyphs, you will find another set in an alcove that have fallen from their original position.
