Armijo Canyon, El Malpais National Consevetion Area, NM
3/11/2025 Armijo Canyon, El Malpais National Conservation Area, NM - Attractions are a ruin, an old ranch house, a meteor crater, and a rock art site within a short distance to see in this area. There is no hiking trail, cross country to get it. There are many boulders in this area, but only one boulder has petroglyphs on it, located at the higher side of the butte.


Arroyo del Tajo, NM
3/12/2025 Arroyo del Tajo, NM - The trail is going down that starts from the Windmill, when reaches the canyon wash, the other side is the location of the pictographs panel. However, not far east from it, there is a nice enjoyable canyon to hike around. Canyon walls are much more suitable for petroglyphs and pictographs than the current location of the pictograph panel, but I didn't see any, my question is why?


San Acacia Butte, NM
3/13/2025 San Acacia Butte, NM - There is a hiking trail, but the hardest part is to find the trailhead. I was lucky to find it in no time. At the top of the butte, there are many rooms ruins in a wide area. Many petroglyphs are near the black cross, each petroglyph is not large in size. It is a nice wide view area.


St Johns Road I, NM
3/25/2025 St Johns Road I, NM 3/25/2025 St Johns Road I, NM - The North side of St Johns Road is full of boulders. Someone told me there are petroglyphs, but didn’t tell me the exact location. Yesterday afternoon I hiked about six miles and today seven miles that were not a trail hike, it was cross country hike. Finally found the RA location, it was excited but too tired, decided tomorrow to finish up here. Another excitement was that I saw a female elk, large in size, and not far distance, we looked at each other for 2-3 minutes, I asked her, "Have you seen petroglyphs? If so, let me know." but she ran a way.


St Johns Road II, NM
3/26/2025 St Johns Road II, NM - I'm glad I revisited RA site again, because I found some more nice petroglyph panels. One of the panels, I was hiking down the slope and found a nice boulder with full of petroglyphs, if I hiked up the hill, I totally missed that panel because nothing special on the other side of the boulder.


Catron Co Road, NM
3/27/2025 Catron Co Road, NM - Again, petroglyphs are somewhere around here, but don’t know the exact location. I started to look around and soon I found some petroglyphs, and I hoped to find some more petroglyphs. I was right, I found many more petroglyphs, where this place is one of the Archaeological sites, see a foot-long pole with a tag.
