Great and awesome place to fish and do some hiking camping a great place to enjoy the outdoors
Love going out here, lots to go..fishing exploring, learn some things about the area and hiking
Beautiful place. Incredible rocks & an awesome lake close by. Lake Halverson. A couple miles hike.
Really great park. I think some would rate it 5*. If I could, I would say 4.5*.
It's really a great place to visit. Some good spots to fish from. I don't ever catch anything anywhere I fish though, so... I can't comment on what you can catch.
Some of the trails are just too steep to take little ones on easily and there's not much to protect you from the elements like you find in more wooded areas. With as hot as the weather is getting... definitely make sure you bring lots of water and ways to cool off.

We went across the bridge to hike. The trails aren't marked, but we found one that wasn't too tough, and the kids could hike too. The wind crossing the bridge was impressive, but once we got into the hike, the wind was blocked. Some bugs but not bad yet. Beautiful scenery.
What a cool park in the middle of nowhere along the snake river about 6 miles south of Melba, ID. There are petroglyphs, picnic tables, camping spots, the snake river, hiking trails, a visitor center, informational signs boards, and an atlatl range to try your hand at an ancient hunting tool. (If you can hit the mammoth in the target you get a cute sticker.)
A few things to keep in mind:
1) The visitor center is open from 10am - 2pm.
2) In order to use the atlatl range the visitor center has to be open since they provide the tools and the instruction.
3) There is almost no shade. Be sure to wear sunscreen and a hat.
4) Bathrooms at the visitor center may not be open year round so plan accordingly.
5) The hiking trails are rugged, so good shoes or hiking boots are recommended if you're going to hike.
Overall, this park is really great. Lots to do and fun to be had. The people who service the park are wonderful. You should really check it out and take the whole family.

Amazing archeological site that shimmers with beauty year round. Great hiking paths, boating, fishing, camping & historical information. Short drive from the city.
