A Stroll at Antelope Pass

Shelter Cave
Day Hike
I took guests staying at Mountain Valley Lodge and RV Park in Rodeo, New Mexico on a day hike in the Peloncillo Mountains to Antelope Pass.

Did exploring of shelter caves, rock art, Native American grinding holes and looking for arrowheads and pottery sherds. The guests each found a arrowhead and I found some pottery sherds. It was a beautiful day with the sun shining looking at the snow on the Peloncillo Mountains across the valley and incredible views.  We had a snack and did some nice visiting.

I was given this link by a friend Desert South West to use when checking out arrowheads to help figure out with the shape, size and notch of arrowheads and the time frame for them. 

The  Peloncillo Mountains  straddles the Arizona and New Mexico boundary in the United States, crosses the international boundary and straddles the Sonora and Chihuahua border in Mexico.

  4. Great post, but I think it would be a stronger post if you listed both advantages and disadvantages and show how the pros outweighs the cons.
