Just an FYI, not being a keren, just be sure its legal to pick up and keep the arrow heads and pottery shards if you keep them. I cant say for AZ, but removing things, even rocks is illegal. Great hike, thanks for showing us.
It is legal to pick them up and put them back down, but it is highly illegal to remove them unless it is on private property. The Archeological Resources Protection act (ARPA) makes that the case in every state.
@@dakistle thanks allot. Years ago I worked on the Taho national forest, diateict 75 in california. If you dont mind some boonie crashing, one can dind old fold mi ing camp sites. Great stuff. I hope more peiple get out into our wild spaces and explore.
Not legal in Arizona and just the picking up and taking stuff out of its context, distorts and destroys archeologists ability to preserve history- make recordings. The commenter isn't being a Karen, its these ignorant folks. Live and learn and teach others not to touch/move mess with preservation! That being said, it looks like you folks had fun. Very pretty. thanks for the video. (Good cop bad cop sorta comment) 😃 future reference look take pictures but leave it where its at. Arrowheads arent the felony charge that pottery is.
How cool. We think this might have been a defensive structure. I don't think all of the damage is natural either. I'd really like to see some drone footage. Google Earth does not do it justice. Looks like a cartoon. Amazing place. I'm going to study more about this place. Thank You for the boots on the ground!
People have been going there for my entire life. You missed the best ruin… and if more assholes like you go there, it won’t be left for future generations. Stay out of the ruins!
Nice hike. Please read information about how to preserve these special places. You are never to walk on or lean on the walls or remove artifacts. These are living museums. Did it never occur to you that walking on the walls will hasten their deterioration? I love your enthusiasm, and share it - please visit with care and respect.
It’s actually a federal crime - some places it’s a 20k fine and or imprisonment to remove artifacts or even rocks and or to damage protect sites - walking around or in can damage things like the midden / levels ( trash pile ) that archeologist and anthropologist find a lot of in-depth information about the cultures and people - but yes. Walking over and on top is actually damaging to the site - The fact that it doesn’t have any mortar left means that it’s pretty old and the walls aren’t being held together with the support it once had -
I've counted 17 ruins/dwellings along those cliff sides. I have no doubt there's more. That area was a thriving community linking themselves all the way to East sedona.
Folks this is one awesome amazing videos ,as it's bc very interesting thank you twos awesome amazing smart delightful s people!!❤️❤️😻😻❤️ Just stays safe as careful out there's!!!!!
I hate to spoil your perception but I've been to these ruins many times as I used to work for Perkins ranch cowboying. There are many ruins and caves in that area. Thanks for the video
"The public has never seen this before." Of course the public has seen it before, Hello. Archeologists have been aware of these sites for decades, and hundreds of others as well. And the little pile of pottery shards you came across were put there by previous visitors. It's a common practice.
I truly love the video of the Indian rock house!! I got very excited to see you found stuff like pottery. I am Disabled now & do not get around well anymore or like I used to do so going along on your adventure was truly special Thanks for taking me along!
I’m gonna become Christian after blaring this copywrite free jesus-rock. I’m just trying to hear what they are saying to the camera but i’m inevitably being ear-raped by the same chord progression over and over
I once sat out on the back side of Casa Grande mountain on a little rock outcrop. There is a flat spot where I dug up 11 holes in the rock that were usd to ground grain by some Indians. The rocks have petroglifos all over them. I grew up in Casa Grande. My life's wanderings have led me back to Florida where I was born. But if I ever leave, I will return to the high desert of Arizona.
That was good fun thanks. Some of those rocks have a quarried look to them that is most intriguing. I would have to spend at least one night under the stars in a place like that if only to connect with the people who lived there. Thank you for sharing this video with us.🌎☀️🌒🌧️
Best to admire and respect the ruins of the once great natives of the Americas. Never take and touch to much and never break. Crazy this has to be said as there is still careless/stupid individuals.
Prescott Arizona is beautiful, and what a awesome find! I'm sure you know that is rattlesnake country and they love rock structure's be careful it's a long ways to the hospital!
Thank you for taking me to that place! Try to smooth out your cameras I felt seasickness at moments as you were panning in and out! Slow down just a bit! Sacred place for sure! The tiny bits of napping and flaking are your best sign to look for and try to find where they quarried clay for pots or fired them at , lots of charcoal?
Surveyed all Yavapai west 1972. Everything from granite mountain to chino to Perkinsville and all along Mingus ... Shot a lot with Billy Stewart out Copper Creek and this area looks west of Prescott ... Obviously this is one of the posts they watched whites coming up for gold and the war started... Remove Indians get gold... Prescott Arizona... Where I've lost half my graduating class to gunfights at the Palace Bar.... Well anyway there's a lot still to dig up. The bus turnaround at Lincoln School is an Indian burial ground... The parking lot to the Methodist church is too... And the top of Apollo Heights Dr. Was a dancing circle of rocks and huge matateh ....the old Smoki museum held and ancient pot intact offered $50k for it 1960s ...good work finding the watchtower...
So, not one of you on the hike that day saw anything wrong with picking up artifacts and climbing all over the rock walls of ancient ruins? It would be a good idea for those of us who stumbled onto your video to forward it to the federal authorities. The disrespect on display when you so "proudly" were walking on top of the walls is disgusting. Please, just stay in the city.
North up on the old ORO ranch south of Bear Camp is a whole city on a hillside collapsed rock houses about a dozen or two and completely untouched .. more arrowheads and pottery laying around . If you have four five figures for a hunt that's about the only way to go see it. Always take magnum pistols as there's mountain lion and bear badger and coyotes will eat you first chance... Be careful out there
Great instincts to film the view from the "window!" Obviously not a defensive porthole. The distant view includes a couple of possible (?) astronomical sighting markers. book: "How the Shaman Stole the Moon."
Looks like 788 individuals who came before me were much stronger willed than myself. At 9:00 I could not take another second of that incessant music, and I'm fond of "Roots" music, having come from Appalachia. I would have been interested in knowing how you know that the public has never viewed this site, but I'll just have to go on with life without knowing.
Does that hole have an east West orientation, if so it may be a celestial calender or marker. Solstice, equinox, etc. It may cast a beam of light to a marker on the ground or a petroglyph. Nice find.
Love seeing these remote sites that are not known but I hope you all are not taking the pottery and stone tools. It is a felony to remove artifacts from public land or private land without permission. Further it takes away from the sites story when an archaeologist records the site. These items are how the sites are dated.
Lol that thing around 5:30 ain’t no porcupine house that’s been hanging out. He just found it and walked in there and lost some quills. A big ass deer probably beds there every couple days. The more ya know.
A porcupine likely did not nest it the overhang shelter. Porcupine quills were used by Indians as needles to stitch hides and any other uses for sharp needles. The quills you picked up were likely hundreds of years old and left by native women.
What not to do while visiting ancient ruins. These places are 800-over1000 years old. Don't remove artifacts like pottery shards or arrow heads. They belong to the ruins.
The way the structures are destroyed I cant fathom wind rain and ice breaking down the walls as effectively as they are , It appears the destruction was done to completely remove any remnants or remains whatsoever. A very human way of dealing with enemies at war . No way errosion alone did that .
You guys went into this scenario like little kids at Christmas, rather than respectful adults. If you weren't so busy dorkin out, you would've noticed that you possibly picked up a piece of a human skull. Next time, go quietly....like a ghost. Leave, as if you were never there. Use the same self- awareness that you do when you're in a cemetery. And sorry....but the looping banjo, car dealership commercial tune is totally overbearing.😜
i love this video but the music is a bit too loud i couldnt here what you were saying please remember to turn it down a notch next time !!! If only stones cud talk What stories wud we hear ?

They were respectful. Get off your high horse.
I don't think the tribes like people touching, stealing and breaking artifacts. To them these artifacts are sacred.
@@Kaygeedagee You are on a "low horse."

Nice!! Not really near Prescott, it's on the way to the Sycamore canyon ruins..
If you turn up the music, it should help drown out any dialog the wind doesn't.
I’m gonna become Christian after blaring this copywrite free jesus-rock. I’m just trying to hear what they are saying to the camera but i’m inevitably being ear-raped by the same chord progression over and over
Cut the music distracting
That was an amazing adventure. Thanks for sharing this great video.
Great video and finding , you should turn off the music when you made it to the top to enjoy the sounds and silence of that awesome place
I live in that area. Very beautiful in this part of the state.
Thank you for sharing the amazing views and a look back into the history of the area.
Awesome video!!!! It's a good spot for viewing the surrounding areas.
Thanks y'all enjoyed the video!
Wow, thanks for taking me along.
I want you two to know I’m so jealous of y’all being able to see that beautiful country . I love Arizona .

Nice trip, hard to hear you talk with the music and wind. just remember to leave no sign you were there.
They won't leave any sign , they take everything they see .
@@kenj.8897 No kidding!?
Prescott Arizona is beautiful, and what a awesome find! I'm sure you know that is rattlesnake country and they love rock structure's be careful it's a long ways to the hospital!
Thank you for sharing this video.
Violent harsh history ! maybe the good old days weren't as good as we think but beautiful and adventurous lives thay lived.
Awesome site with excellent defensibility! Love the collection of smaller, throwable stones on the top!
I forgot about the carved hand on a rock and the lizard people carving. You must look at every single rock because of the best way to discover
That was cool! Get those hikes in while you can. It’s getting to be that time when our friendly snakes start coming out!
I have hiked Prescott a couple times, Awesome Place to live. Beautiful Lakes there. I have found ares here in Tucson where there are lots of Pottery.
Thank you for taking me to that place! Try to smooth out your cameras I felt seasickness at moments as you were panning in and out! Slow down just a bit! Sacred place for sure! The tiny bits of napping and flaking are your best sign to look for and try to find where they quarried clay for pots or fired them at , lots of charcoal?
4:16 I think this is a bowl sherd from Prescott Plainware/Gray Ware, likely from 1000-1300 AD (but the Prescott culture began around 200 AD).
Great job guys I know that area yet have never seen these cool ruins!!
You really shouldn't be climbing all over the structures and removing items. Sites like this are kept secret for this exact reason, to preserve them!
I literally happened across this same ruin last deer season. It was after the fire and looks a lot different now. Thanks for sharing
Looked Like it might have been a stronghold for sure. cool vide thanks for sharing.

You tell ‘em, Bob! Those morons need a “wake-up call” from the Dept. of Natural Resources…or indigenous locals.
I lived at the east base of Granite Mountain for a while and every hilltop around me was awash in artifact and ruins.
Wow great views , 💯👍
I can't hear you over the music.
amazing find
Hope your leaving all the pottery for us to see .
More evidence that things changed as we revolve around the sun . It never stops until.....it does. Thanks for the share. :O)

The wildlife is in far more danger from humans that humans are from the wildlife!
The old cowboys and hunters of Yavapai County know exactly where you were at.
During the 1970s, Dad and I hunted all around that area.
I was there over 30 years ago in that hole was for the summer solstice in the winter solstice
You shouldn't climb on the ruins or take the pottery look up the trek planner on here
Great instincts to film the view from the "window!" Obviously not a defensive porthole. The distant view includes a couple of possible (?) astronomical sighting markers. book: "How the Shaman Stole the Moon."
the little window lined up with the distant peak. Seems ceremonial.
Looks like 788 individuals who came before me were much stronger willed than myself. At 9:00 I could not take another second of that incessant music, and I'm fond of "Roots" music, having come from Appalachia. I would have been interested in knowing how you know that the public has never viewed this site, but I'll just have to go on with life without knowing.
Music overwhelming!
It was probably a home, but for sure it was a defensive fort.
is it illegal to take home anything that is 50 yrs and older?
Does that hole have an east West orientation, if so it may be a celestial calender or marker. Solstice, equinox, etc. It may cast a beam of light to a marker on the ground or a petroglyph. Nice find.
Never seen by you?😊
That's cool,I'm guessing that was Anasazi,really cool find
In my opinion these videos demonstrate all to common "belagona ignorance"--makes me sad.
Love seeing these remote sites that are not known but I hope you all are not taking the pottery and stone tools. It is a felony to remove artifacts from public land or private land without permission. Further it takes away from the sites story when an archaeologist records the site.

Lol that thing around 5:30 ain’t no porcupine house that’s been hanging out. He just found it and walked in there and lost some quills.
A big ass deer probably beds there every couple days.
The more ya know.
THAt looks interesting. Do you share the location or the road into it?
Can't imagine you finding yourself out of the spa
If it’s an actual ruin or dwelling. Maybe you shouldn’t walk all over it? 🤷🏾♀️
Best show I’ve ever seen
A porcupine likely did not nest it the overhang shelter. Porcupine quills were used by Indians as needles to stitch hides and any other uses for sharp needles. The quills you picked up were likely hundreds of years old and left by native women.
Don’t get caught taking any pot shards !
If someone is taking shards, I deeply hope they do get caught.
I enjoyed that.
Have you hiked to Black Mesa near Rye AZ.?
Does this place have a name? Have archeologists checked it out?
I could be wrong but I think you were exploring a Skinwalker cave.
The audio is not the best not very legible?
high up above the mud flood reset x facotor eveny
Terrible audio!
Enjoyed the video. The music keeps your voice from being heard.
"Can't believe how well preserved it is". You know , having townie Bozo's like us walking around on top of it an all...
What not to do while visiting ancient ruins. These places are 800-over1000 years old. Don't remove artifacts like pottery shards or arrow heads. They belong to the ruins.

Title is VERY misleading.
Likely the hole would allow sighting on the sun or other celestial object on a specific date. Sunset or sunrise on the solstice perhaps?
Been there
Were you walking on fallen down ruins? I got chills watching you!!
How do you get there
That area is close to Chauncey ranch
A long way from Chauncy
Where is this exactly?
From India to aridzona
You mean Native Americans??....what are indians..?
I could do without the deliverince music while you’re talking?😅

Hey there👍new to your channel , wishing you and yours safe travels. Come on down to Rio Rico, and come see our 👻 town of Ruby ?
Supposedly most of the ruins in southwest are 8 to 1200 yrs.
That area belongs to the Yavapai tribe! It’s been seen by thousands through the years!
Sinagua actually
Looks more like a white settlers house
They probably watched for elk and Buffalo heard from there.
Why did y'all stop making videos It been three years 😂
Oh GOD dont admit to touching a single twig stick or rock ,
mountain house
No music
i love this video but the music is a bit too loud i couldnt here what you were saying please remember to turn it down a notch next time !!! If only stones cud talk What stories wud we hear ?
The obnoxious music ruined the video
Remove music 🙌🏻
Too much wind
Too much music
Adios!
Too much makeup...too much botox...too much lack of respect for nature, history and artifacts, period...
Too much music
