Three Rivers Petroglyphs






As we begin our slow journey home we are spending less time in locations but we are still hitting new sites. Yesterday we stayed in the BLM Three Rivers Petroglyph park and hiked the Trails. The first trail was to visit the Petroglyphs, and there are many. Over 21,000 in a small area recorded by the local Archaeological Society which took over 6 years. We also explored the near by village ruins. The camping facilities at the park are minimal, two sites with electric and most unlevel, but hey, they are free and all have beautiful views of the Sierra Blanca mountains rising 12,003 feet above the Tularosa basin.
