Longer hike to get out to the rock. Get there early to avoid the crowds. After you take your pictures on the rock bridge head up the narrow path up to the left where you will see a large boulder perched. More great views and a tree to climb.
The stop everyone has to make, but since everyone wants their picture with only themselves or friends on the rock, it could take an hour to get out on the rock once you get there - we didn't bother
Go early! We went around 8 - 9 and the crowds were starting to fill up but it was still manageable. We passed by there around 10 AM the previous day and there were lots of people - you'll stand in line waiting to take a photo for a while. Wear comfy shoes and take the trail from the Mescal parking (don;t try to shortcut the hike using the jeep road - it gets really dusty and jeeps regularly fly by.
4 miles round trip but it was AWESOME!!!
We went in January. It was hot during the day but cold in the shade in the afternoon. Bring water and layers
Not as easy a hike as we were led to believe.
