Join CRAF experts and Rocky Hill Site Stewards for a two-day tour of this awe-inspiring archaeological area.
The Rocky Hill Archaeological Preserve is a 22-acre Archaeological Conservancy property, and a traditional spiritual site of the Foothill Yokuts. The Archaeological Conservancy preserves the land and the archaeological sites, including the vivid pictographs that are painted on granitic boulders and in caves.
For the Yokuts of this area, Rocky Hill is a living historical and sacred site that is still in use. This two-day tour will take you to a different side of the hill each day. You will go up and down hill, over boulders, up a ladder, and into caves with low ceilings. The tour typically takes at least five hours each day.
