- Tips For Visiting Here with Respect
Historic Artifacts Aren’t Trash
Leave historic artifacts like rusted cans right where they are. They help interpret the past and show who has been there before.
Stay On Designated Roads
Use existing roads that are approved for use by land managers. Driving off-road can damage fragile archaeology and ecosystems.
Remember That Ancestral Landscapes Are Sacred
Tribes and Pueblos consider ancestral landscapes a place for ceremony and a place where the ancestors’ spirits still reside. The soil, sky, animals, plants, cultural and ancestral sites are all interconnected and hold spiritual significance to Tribal nations.
