Sightseeing
Lupo Miagolio

The monument contains more than 20,000 images pecked in stone. Some are recognizable as animals, people, or crosses & others are more mysterious. The images carved onto these black rocks provide an opportunity for people today to share the cultures of those who long ago inhibited & traveled through the Rio Grande Valley.

The cottonwood forest that borders the Rio Grande runs through New Mexico; its habitat is both unique and diminishing. It’s known as “the Bosque,” which means “woods” or “forest” in Spanish. Its riparian forests provide an oasis of valuable resources for animals and plants living in an otherwise arid Southwest habitat.
