It was definitely a nice place to stop for the afternoon hopefully it’s on your way and it’s not too far of a drive because it’s great for children but I was misled by think it was 7 miles into the cave on a boat but it was only a quarter-mile. The history it was neat, but they let you know that it’s all hearsay. The blue river flowing through the woods was gorgeous, it would be a nice place to stop for lunch and a little walk through the woods. It’s very touristy, it’s not really secluded. The gift shop was really nice they had such unique stuff I enjoyed shopping there while I waited for my tour to start

Today we stopped at the world famous Cadillac Ranch. Created in 1974 by a local artist consisting of ten Cadillacs (1949-1963). It’s now an interactive artwork for graffiti(which is welcome and provided for free) and it was pretty neat!  you can spend 5 minutes here or 2 hours. It’s Free! Spray paint was even provided for free.

This whole park was kind of lame. I hate leaving negativity on reviews, but the lady at the gate was not nice and $25 to enter the park with construction delays and not so great thing to see made this my least favorite National Park in all my travels. I’ve been on the road for 3 weeks hitting all the National Parks possible.

Road construction in the park caused us to sit and wait FOREVER. Just so you know it will take an extra hour or so to reach agate from the gate of the park for the next few weeks.

Definitely great to stop if you’re passing through, don’t go out of your way though it’s not a whole lot. It’s A great spot to stop for lunch, but if you’re not stopping for that you can be in and out in 10 minutes.

I’ve hiked the Grand Canyon twice and on this third time we stopped at this hidden gem and it is so secluded. so far it’s my favorite part of the whole Grand Canyon!!!! The bridge is out, but don’t let that stop you, go under it, around it, or over it, figure it out and get there because it’s worth it!!!! Oh, and don’t forget to go inside a little cave, it doesn’t look like you can but once you go funder the waterfall and inside it’s really neat!

The trail is closed, I don’t know if it’s due to COVID-19 but there’s a lot of signs posted. There were quite a few cars parked and people returning from the springs regardless. We spoke to two of them and they told us the springs are gorgeous and it’s worth taking the risk.
