de Chelly National Monument
Canyon de Chelly NM offers the opportunity to learn about Southwestern
Indian history from the earliest Anasazi to the Navajo Indians who still live
and farm here. Its primary attractions are ruins of Indian villages built
between 350 and 1300 AD at the base of sheer red cliffs and in canyon wall caves.
Mojave
National Preserve
Located between Los Angeles and Las Vegas is the Mojave National Preserve, a
1.6 million acre park. Trains pass through this area over rails built by the
Union Pacific, leading to Kelso. See the Kelso Depot, built in 1924 and closed
in 1985. It has been completely restored, and is now Mojave NP's information
center, with museum exhibits and historically furnished rooms.
Cosos Range - Little Petroglyph Canyon
The Cosos lie within the confines of China Lake Naval Weapons Center (NWC), the U.S. Navy's largest research and development facility, making it a little difficult to arrange a visit. Let DesertUSA show you this little-viewed canyon that contains as many as 100,000 drawings, some thought to be 10,000 years old.
