Starting at the visitors center follow BLM Trail 100 up Sloan Canyon Wash. There are 4 dry waterfalls to scramble up. The first three are easy, the fourth is a little hard & about 12 feet up. Shortly after the 4th scramble you'll see the Petroglyhs. Past the petroglyphs look for trail marker in center of wash. It points to the right for BLM Trail 200(Horseman's Trail) Follow this trail up and over as it makes a partial loop heading back.
