  • 1:00 PM - 5:00 PM
  • Rock Art Ranch (near Windslow - Chevelon Canyon)

JOIN US FOR A DAY TRIP TO ROCK ART RANCH

SATURDAY OCTOBER 22, 2016

The cost of this trip is $20.00 to $25.00 per member for an entry fee to the Ranch, depending upon our attendance numbers.  Trip is open to all AAS/DFC members with priority given to DFC members.  There is a limit of 20 participants for this trip.

We are meeting at the Ranch (near but not in Winslow) at 1:00pm and taking a tour of the ranch before visiting the rock art in Chevelon Canyon.  Please plan on spending at least 3-4 hours because there is a lot to see at the Ranch and the rock art in the canyon is outstanding.

The trip down to see the rock art is slippery and requires agility climbing a steep walk way.  Please know your limitations.

A high clearance vehicle is recommended as the road to the ranch and rock art is gravel.
