About 1/2 hours drive from my house is the trailhead to Hieroglyphic Canyon. From the trailhead, it is about an hour's hike to the canyon.
What's wonderful about it is that the canyon is strewn with pictographs by the Hohokam Indians which are estimated to be as old as 2,000 years. And there's about 100 of them. See more at:

Because we're in between seasons now, it's cool enough to hike there but still too hot for most people. So twice this week I went and I was virtually the only person there. You sit there knowing that thousands of years ago the natives were doing exactly the same thing you were doing: hanging out and enjoying the view, etc.
