No signs leading to site. Finally found it. terrible, rocky almost un passable dirt road. No sign. Would not recommend.
-
A nice hike to see these interesting figures. Just don't expect them to be well marked and road in unpaved and rough.
-
About 12 miles or so north of Blythe, and about a half mile west highway 95, I just keep coming back to see this wonder. 4x4 not required to get there, but go during any season but summer. It's too hot.

We went in the heat of the day and only hiked to the large man.I would like to go back and see the other figures. Don't make the mistake we did and drive towards the weather station. The road to the main figures is marked and handled our rental car. But low slung cars may have more problems.

It's nice to see and know that we have the remnants of mysterious art history in the most remote of places. Visiting a site like this gives you time to reflect on the vastness of humanity. If you're passing through, you should stop, see and reflect.

The intaglios north of Blythe and on the road between Quartzsite and Bouse are really unique and worth the short drive.

These figures are very easy to find and really quite fascinating and mysterious. We had seen similar figures at other locations, but these were just as impressive. It made us wonder who made them and why.

Thank you to everyone how has written a review on the Intaglios. We wouldn't have heard of them otherewise. We thought they were incredible. Not hard to find...on the lefthand side of 95, about 15 miles north of Blythe. It is signposted and the gravel road is not a problem for family cars. There are 2 parking areas, the first one has 2 fenced figures and be sure to continue up the road (not far) to the last and best preserved figure. The figures are over 100' in length, no one knows how old they are and they are magnificent.

Ah, The Blythe Intaglios. I can say that I visit this area everytime I am in Blythe, but not for the sights, there is some good offroading to be done in this area. Simply turn off the highway, and follow the trail back. Just make sure you have a beer to drink at the top, because it is glorious. Go father and explore if you want, however I recommend only doing this if you are in a Toyota or a Jeep. Have fun.

While these aren't the most spectacular geoglyphs we've ever seen – we were surprised to see something of this nature in the US. It is worth the short side trip to view them. There isn't much signage, but you can read about the Blythe Intaglios on BLM's website. Directions to the site are as follows: From Blythe, CA, take US 95/Intake Blvd and head north. Travel 15/16 miles north of the town of Blythe. The entrance to the intaglios/geoglyphs is a gravel road on the west side of the highway. A stone historical marker is on the east side of US95 and a small Bureau of Land Management (BLM) sign marks the entrance on the west side of the road. If you are driving the speed limit (or faster) it is very easy to miss this road. The gravel road is quite rutted. Passenger cars will need to use caution in navigating this road. The geoglyphs are surrounded by chain link fences to protect them from vandals. The fenced areas are a short distance from the gravel road.
