Trek with me on the Hieroglyphic Trail in the Superstition Mountains of Arizona to an ancient Hohokam site containing many petroglyphs and a rock shelter.
Excellent trek! Seeing that roadrunner follow you was heartwarming since they are usually very fast and difficult to photograph. Thank you Alex for the journey!
Alex, you're a very good teacher in the field.. Although, I really doubt I could keep up with you in the rugged areas you take us to... Thank you for sharing your adventures and lectures..🕊️
Great video! Loving all your recordings from the past 10+ years and we learned so much watching them as family. Thank you for sharing. We live in Arizona and appreciate your sharing adventures here.
I loved seeing the Roadrunner bird. 9:34 They are amazing to observe firsthand. I’ve never seen a roadrunner drink water. Also really pretty vistas in this area. The petroglyphs were impressive to see. Thank you Alex for sharing your journeys with RU-vid.
Having been to AZ once and having witnessed all the signs of ancient life in the desert, I was especially drawn in with this episode. It's good to see you are still trekking, Alex. And thanks for taking us viewers along for the treks and discoveries. Best regards top you.
love watching your videos. im from the quechan tribe at ft. yuma but i live in san jose. i visited the "meeting place" near newman road. had a great time exploring. thank you for the work you do!
Many natives say the petroglyphs and pictographs are not made by them but by First Nations, which is most likely the Sasquatch People. Much of the stuff including what is termed 'pueblo ruins' was already there when they arrived. You have to factor in the "Star People" or the general term of "Spirits" in all of this if you really want a firm grasp on what's really going on.
Enjoyed your Bay area videos and have recently moved to Marana just north of Tucson. I hiked this trail a couple of years ago and have been interested in the pipette since. I have seen many pipettes at different sites in and around Tucson, some great sites here.
Wow! Beautiful scenery and so much to see. To travel back in time would have been great, so many questions would have been answered. Thank you Alex, for sharing this great video!
I always look around for Jimson weed at these sites and wonder if it’s hallucinogenic attributes were employed in the making of some of these petroglyphs.
Thanks Alex that was a really stunning sacred hike up there to those places in the superstition mountains. My guess is some supernatural transcendent entities went on a who ride and made those graffitis all over the place pre-columbian or pre-contact is the term now I guess

Someone Musta Been Really Board & Didn't Have Much To Do With Their Time To Carve All Those Pictures On All Them Stones & Walls! PS I Lived In Phx, Mesa, Gilbert AZ For 52 Years & Never Knew This Place Even Existed... Hiked All Over The Superstitions + Peralta Trails Up To Weaver's Needle A Few Times & This Looked To Be Further South Of Them Areas? Thanks 👍👍😁😎
Oh they had plenty to do to stay alive daily to survive, foraging for food(hunting), water & shelter & alote more. They didn't just hang out with nothing to do but draw pictures 😂😅
Hello, and thanks for watching the series. My observation is that humans were just as smart 1,000's of years ago as they are today. Humans just continue to build upon the knowledge that they learn. For example, NASA's goal for the 2030's is to develop the capability to send a human to Mars...........................alex
