From the trailhead at the cattle gate in the fence. Hike north east toward a large valley. Soon look to the right and see the first butte on the right. Go around the left end of that butte to the large alcove behind it. Here you will see Hoodoos on the cliff tops.
Continue hiking behind the butte in an easterly direction and you will find yourself walled in by a large mud dike. There is a slot in the middle of the dike that does not go through, but just to the right of the slot you can climb up one of the leads that show evidence of hiked on.
After you get on top of the mud dike the trail continues (actually starts for the first time) Hike further looking left at the hoodoos on the ridge. there are several clusters. When the trail peters out go cross country into the hoodoos. You can go right up to the tall skinny one.
Tall skinny Hoodoo.

Aster
Ipomopsis longiflora, white flower skyrocket.
The trail leaved the car through a cattle gate in the fence and proceeds north east in an open valley following cow trails. Turn east when you get to the left end of the first butte and go behind it, up a mud wall to the main Hoodoos.
