On a cold, snowy Monday afternoon we had the entire park to ourselves. Due to snow not all hiking trails were open. That didn't diminish this trip at all. The area is just beautiful, and the history here is incredible. Carved into the sandstone bluff are petroglyphs, names, and dates, dating back to the 1500's. Onate carved his name into this rock over 10 years before anyone had landed at Plymouth Rock. This is really a must see for anyone who loves the history of the Southwest. The park is also a designated Dark Sky Park and there are stargazing events held here in the warmer months. As of the date of this review the park is closed on Tuesday and Wednesday.
