The few glyphs that can be seen are neat but overall this was very underwhelming. The pictographs (painted handprints and maybe one other thing) were kind of special since they're more rare. My two photos show all that one can see at this site. There are supposedly some more pictographs (but not glyphs) along a separate trail but we didn't check that out.

This is an easy 0.1 mile trail within the Red Rock National Conservation Area along the Scenic Loop Road (USFS entrance fee required). The Scenic Loop Road is 13 miles long, with vista parking lots and various trailheads along its route. The access to the Petroglyph Wall Trail is located at the Willow Springs Picnic Area.

The Petroglyph Wall trailhead sign is small and may be difficult to locate. Park at the end of the paved road and parking lot. The trailhead will be across from Willow Springs, and before a small wooden fence. Although the trail is short, it is not wheelchair/ADA accessible. The trail crosses a dry creek bed (dry most of the year) and therefore has some up and down rock steps. Much of the trail is located within the rocky wash.

To the left of the petroglyphs is a small circular pictograph. More pictographs (hand prints) are located across the paved road, just a couple feet away from the paved (midpoint?) parking area. The handprints are on a large boulder, facing the parking lot.
