Heritage Sites & Indian Rock Art
There are several heritage sites scattered across the state of Arizona. A similar site located near Sedona vividly displays forms of Indian Rock Art. Located in north-central Arizona the area can be accessed easily from the town of Sedona. The site falls under the Red Rock Pass Program.
You do not want to miss out on heritage sites and Indian rock art when you are visiting Arizona. You can visit virtually any day because the site is open seven days a week from 10 am to 6 pm. However it remains closed on Thanksgiving and also on Christmas. Pets are not allowed and there is no drinking water within the grounds.
From Sedona the site could be approached by taking 89 A South from Y in the Oak Creek Canyon area. After traveling south from mile marker 365, go half a mile and then go right and follow the dirt road for about 10 miles to reach the parking lot of the heritage site.
Alternatively you can take the 89A and then turn right to the Dry Creek Road. Follow this road to the Enchantment resort and then turn left to take the Boynton Pass road. This road though accessible only during dry seasons, is a treacherous stretch of track but is blessed with majestic scenic delights of red rock formations of the Grand Canyon.
The area was inhabited by the Sinagua from the 12th century AD to the 13th Century AD. The petroglyphs and drawings project the kind of life the tribe lived. This will give you an idea about their food, clothing and the tools they used and the animals they hunted.
