Ancient Art & Waterfalls: Our Jones Hole Spring Hike | G&D's Journeys

There is something magical about Utah's Dinosaur National Monument in the spring. 🌸 We spent the day on the Jones Hole Trail, wandering past blooming wildflowers and massive canyon walls to find the Deluge Shelter pictographs and petroglyphs. The highlight of our journey was reaching Ely Creek Falls, a stunning natural soundtrack to our desert hike. While the trail continues to the Green River, we found the falls to be the perfect turnaround point for a scenic afternoon. This hike delivers everything we love about exploring National Park Service lands: deep history, lush canyon scenery, and hidden water. As always, please remember that rock art is fragile and irreplaceable—look, admire, photograph, but never touch.
