Mesa Prieta Petroglyph Project is proud to bring back Family Day! Bring the whole family for a guided petroglyph hike, youth activity and light refreshments on the Wells Petroglyph Preserve. RSVP by "purchasing" your free tickets, one for each member of your family. You will then receive a confirmation email with additional information and an attached map with directions. 


Recommended Age Range: 8 - 13 years old.  Our activities are fun for all ages, but are taken from our 4th - 7th Grade Curriculum Guide: "Discovering Mesa Prieta." (Find out more about our curriculum on our website.) The petroglyph hike portion of this event is about 30 - 40 minutes long and occurs on a gravel road. Please come prepared. Bring water, sun screen, hats, and sturdy footwear for hiking on loose gravel and uneven terrain.  Optionally, walking sticks, binoculars and polarized sunglasses can all be very helpful.  Terrain is not suitable for strollers.
