Jazz Report post Posted May 29, 2021 I thought I knew my backyard. Came across this video and can't place it. Somewhere apparently on New River Mesa. Any ideas? I bet Edge knows. The New River Mesa Ruin - YouTube Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Saguaro Report post Posted May 29, 2021 It looks like it hasn’t been messed with that much. Not like the ruins in 3a. From 1995 til about 2003, all the ones I knew about have been excavated around Holbrook and Snowflake. One is still untouched but I expect it to be gone soon as the wind turbines brought roads closer to it. I wish I could have caught the people that did it while they were in the act. 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

I've been planning to take a trip up there myself after reading about the old stone fences, which ALSO are hard to find on google earth. Now have two reasons!

Now have two reasons! I saw those as well- I’ve got three spots to check out up there. I’ll take the drone and see if I can get some shots. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Worst ride ive ever been on, nasty nasty country That's no BS!!! I've hunted in there quite a bit on foot and it'll wear you out quick. Looks like a yellow grass golf course till you get into it. Nice thing is you won't see a soul hunting those canyons. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
