It is slightly annoying to see painted rocks for the first couple thousand feet though, but it does help. I believe there are two rocks that say something along lines of "no water, extremely strenuous."


The one thing that I'll comment on is that we left from the Ramon trailhead and we did not come across the picnic tables but instead came first to the painted rock telling us there was no water for the next 8-10 miles. This confused us at first but once we saw the metal warning sign and the metal Long-Horn Sheep sign we figured that we were on the right track. I figure the tables must be on the Museum trailhead trail.

Right, the tables are along the museum trail. I prefer the Ramon trailhead myself so i don't see the tables much.
