Saddle Mountain

GPS planning file and map.

The Saddle Mountain Petroglyphs are a little southwest of Tonopah, Arizona. There are two groups of petroglyphs at Saddle Mountain with the main site being those to the west. To get there, take I-10 Exit 94 and drive south on North 411th for 2.7 miles, then right onto the West Salome Highway for another 5.3 miles. At that point turn left onto the West Courthouse Road for 1.1 miles, then left onto BLM 8212 for 1 mile, and one final left for 0.6 miles to the trailhead. Use the map and GPS file to find the East site. There are quite a few primitive campsites in the area that tend to get a lot of use.

For turn-by-turn directions you can enter 'Saddle Mountain BLM Petroglyphs' into your driving app.

Included with this post is the GPS file and map that we plan to use for our first visit. If you don't want to wait for us to get around to it feel free to try the GPS file and map for yourself. With no guarantee, of course, but they most often prove valuable for us.
