First time doing Coyote Buttes South and WOW. We went Cottonwood Cove access to main formations starting at 6:00 AM. Spring and fall offered best conditions. Multiple photography spots throughout area. Bottom line: First aid kit is mandatory. Grateful for this one. Quick notes: - Know the signs of altitude. - Move over for faster hikers. - First aid kit is mandatory. - Wave at other hikers. - Know where water is.
