Petroglyph National Monument

Petroglyph National Monument protects one of the largest petroglyph sites in North America, featuring designs and symbols carved onto volcanic rocks by Native Americans and Spanish settlers 400 to 700 years ago. These images are a valuable record of cultural expression and hold profound spiritual significance for contemporary Native Americans and for the descendants of the early Spanish settlers.

We climbed the basalt rocks and this was the view from 1 mile up


I also made friends with a little lizard who posed for me.
 

These are some of the amazing petroglyphs we saw.
