AR15RDY Report post Posted February 21, 2016 So unfortunately we weren't successful this year in 22 but we came across these images. Just wondering if anyone has seen these before or has an opinion if they're real? It was located north of rye/Gilmore springs area in a thick area on top of a mountain that didn't have any trails leading to it. I can't imagine that someone would climb this mountain just to scratch these in the boulders and hope someday when some random hunter came through beating the brush would see them.. 3 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

AR15RDY Report post Posted February 21, 2016 Well if so it was impressive, there was different piles of boulders with similar drawings. Only if we could have found some javelina...regardless just being outdoors if you glass enough and cover ground you can usually find something pretty cool. Thanks for your input Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

muledeerarea33? Report post Posted February 21, 2016 If you are the first to see I'd delete the approximate location in your post and keep it secret. Lotsa a folks deface nice pictographs. I've seen it before. A place I went for years ended up getting colored with chalk, paint, put on a geocache site, and now it's trashed from all the wanna be "conservative" hippies that visited it.

lancetkenyon Report post Posted February 21, 2016 Petroglyphs are all over. I know of tons of sites that seem off the beaten path to modern day people. Nice find. 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
azslim Report post Posted February 21, 2016 yep, a bunch of them in 22 & 23, cliff dwellings in many canyons and ruins on hilltops, I get easily sidetracked when I'm hunting there Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
CATERPILLAR Report post Posted February 22, 2016 They are real I took my kids to this exact location an have pictures of the same carvings. I don't know where u parked but where I parked before we hike in there was a sight saying the area was protected by Arizona site stewards. Also look at the shape of the highway it actually goes completely around the area in almost a circle. That's more than enough info for anyone to find the place now Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

AR15RDY Report post Posted February 22, 2016 Well I decided to go out one more time and worry about work tomorrow... My cousin and I found these guys meandering around at 145 yards off at 10 am and we let the Varmageddon/Hornady eat! 3 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
