Click on this link to run a Slideshow
This area is about 16 miles North of Deming, NM, in the Cooke's
Peak area. There are two main areas of petroglyphs (Pony Hills and
Frying Pan Canyon), along the old
Butterfield trail. The petroglyphs date between 600 and 1200 AD. The
Butterfield trail was open 6 years, just before the Civil War. It was
protected by Fort Cummings, (3 miles away) over Palmer Pass and passing by Massacre Peak.
