    Visited this hidden gem last week during our Sedona AZ vacay. Totally worth the 2.5-hour NE drive…read morefrom Sedona, this place is run by 4 generations of family members who walk & talk you thru their 5k acreage property, complete with Native American ruins & mysterious Petroglyphs. Loved it!

    Since we moved to Arizona I have developed several new interests, and one of them is petroglyphs…read more So My Lady decided she would take me here for my birthday. Rock Art Ranch is way out in the country, on a dirt road between Winslow and Holbrook, Arizona, The dust from the road completely covered our car before we got to the ranch, and we washed the car the next day in Winslow. It was May, and we encountered quite a few cattle and calves on the way to the ranch and back. It is actually a 5000-acre working ranch, and we had to make reservations and pay for the tour with cash. The owners were real cowboys, and they escorted us on the tour personally. Three areas of interest were featured on the tour. The first was the ranch complex, which included a large converted barn, some old equipment including wagons and camp gear, a preserved bunkhouse, and a memorial rock garden outside the barn. The second was an area out in the wilds that included some Native American hogans and an archaeological site of a 14th-Century Puebloan village. The third was the area the ranch is famous for: petroglyphs. They are found in a canyon on the Chevelon Creek, a tributary of the Little Colorado River. A thousand feet away you wouldn't notice the canyon, but once you are there it's a treat. The Chevelon Canyon cuts into the plain for a depth of several hundred feet. There is a picnic area on a platform house that overlooks the canyon, with plenty of shade. It's a steep descent to the creek, down steps and a path cut into the sandstone walls. On those walls are thousands of carvings made by men and women that go back thousands of years, and that is what the Rock Art Ranch is really all about. Take a lunch, you can't buy one at the ranch. Take plenty of water, the 100-degree heat will get to you, especially when you realize you have to climb back up to the platform shelter. Don't worry about restrooms, there is a charming, clean outhouse up the hill from the platform shelter. Do have a look at other sites on the web to see what you're getting into. There is so much to explore, we'll go back some day and pick up where we left off.
