Petroglyph Documentation at Santa Clara Reserve

Join the BLM in documenting the large petroglyph site at Land Hill on the Santa Clara Reserve. This site is well known to tourists, but the documentation is outdated. BLM archaeologists and 4-5 volunteers will work on relocating documented petroglyph panels and search for undocumented petroglyphs at the site. Once all panels are located the group with photograph and GPS panel locations as well as update the site documentation. Volunteers are welcome to visit the numerous other petroglyph sites in the reserve after the documentation project is concluded. The project will require a moderate hike of approximately 1.5 miles to the site from the parking lot. There is no shade at the site and volunteers should bring a hat, sunglasses, sunscreen, and plenty of water.

Please contact Nicole Lohman at nlohman@blm.gov to sign up for the event, as it is capped at a maximum of 5 participants. Additional information will be provided to confirmed volunteers.
