Watch outJust outside of Albuquerque you can find petroglyphs the native american form of hieraglyphs. Some of the petroglyphs are easy to decypher and look like animals or people for example while others are much harder to understand.

These can be found in different areas of the country but we went to the National Monument in New Mexico.

 

 

 

Petroglyph 

We went there on one of the hottest days. The sun was blazing and it was hot around the stones. Sweat was pooring down my back. I got dizzy on my way up the hill. Now remember… no humidity which was nice!

Water On your way down

taking picturesThe water that we brought was gone by the time we came back to the car and the walk/climb only took about 20 minutes. The rocks were really interesting to look at. Some are several hundred years old others are more recent.

The views were also very beautiful and the landscape so different from what we are used to.
