One of your best explorations! Thank you for taking us along the ancient trails.
Glad you enjoyed it your welcome and thanks for watching
I like the petroglyphs adventures just like any of your jaunts. Keep them coming
Thank you .. I will try .. did you get to see the location on Onx?
I like seeing everything you video. It’s all new to me and if I wasn’t in such bad health, I might be riding along with you on these journeys.
Keep up the petroglyph adventures, as a self-proclaimed amateur archaeologist, I really enjoy them!
I enjoy every trip you take. The mules,dogs,camping, and hunting. It’s all good. Thanks for your efforts.
Two mules, a pack of hound dogs,the time and place to explore!!
Your my new hero
Thank you
I love watching your riding and exploring adventures
Omg! You’re a geezer after my own heart! Big Bend SW TX, Davis Mts. That has to be the area you were in. I’ve been there twice. Stayed at Fort Davis and the Chisos Basin. Saw my first javelina in that basin. Lived in Dallas now AZ. I love Big Bend. The way the Rio Grand winds its way through those red canyon walls in the barren landscape. Stunning! One of my favorite national parks. First time I was there was in early 80’s then later in the 80’s again before moving to AZ. There is something about the desolation and isolation and pure primitiveness of it that grabs you. I wanted it to swallow me up in its wild singularity. I want to go back. On horseback would be ideal. You would feel the immersion
into a time without cars and engines knowing the only way to travel. I’m jealous! Take me with you!
He is in Southern New Mexico
Yeah I am in Southern New Mexico .. but I do love those Davis Mountains .. a geezer huh lol Thanks lets go
Great video with the rock art and grinding holes in the rocks 🪨
The Membres People were strong in that area from about 600 AD to 1200 AD and were very artistic
They farmed and are known for their exquisite pottery
Thanks for the ride ✅
🙏✝️🇺🇸
Yes! That one intricate glyph definitely looks like some of the Mimbres pottery!
great video Brett, so neat to see all that you find on your journeys
You are like the man i spent most of my life with. We would hike for days on end. He always chose the nights camp and never lit a fire where no fire had been. He showed cache left by Jesuit, spanish, and indian. But never took a single thing. He died at the age of 84. Blind, deaf, and broke. The richest man I've ever known.
Those people had to have been there for many generations so much drawings there, and the depth of the grinding holes. Thanks for showing these to us not many people have ever seen them.
Sad what they did to the native people 😢
Sad what native people did to them.
When you mentioned camels it made me remember that the army brought in camels to chase the Apaches. If I remember correctly they were called Beal's camels. I hadn't thought about that in years
Some were let loose in Arizona and there are still in the Southern desert.
Hi jolly camels in Quartzsite Az
@@stephenshort839 wow I didn't know that either. That's a neat thing to know.
@@stephenshort839 I believe they also tried to see if they would eat the grease wood in Arizona and New Mexico
@@stephenshort839 that's also how the oryx came to New Mexico
I love seeing these baron landscapes they're so alien to me coming from the rain soaked UK, but really beautiful.
I bet .. thanks
Another day above the grass. Thanks for sharing.
You got that right! Thanks
Your channel name lol
I really enjoyed this one. I find them very interesting..
Onward and Upward is the Watchword..
Yes sir thanks ... Onward and Upward .. getting about time to head into some higher country ... Thanks
My favorite channel love watching your adventures ❤
Wow, thank you!
What a hard life the Indians lived out there why were they not just left alone
Sometimes you make me jealous… Minus the rattlesnakes. 🥴🤣👊🏼🥰
WOW, great show ! Don't apologize for showing the petroglyphs, we just love it, we would just like for you to go to petroglyph school and learn to interpret them, thanks for the ride
I want more of these petroglyph videos, I love them
I will try .. I know of one more site .. Thanks
I agree, each one is so unique, and the art is mysteriously beautiful.
Thanks for the new video !!! I do enjoy them
Glad you like them! Thanks for watching
Another great little ride!! Thank you!
You bet! Thanks for watching
I always enjoy and appreciate your videos, and I personally am fascinated by the pictographs of the ancients! Thank you, and keep up the great work!
Love your adventures including the petroglyphs. Thank you
Nice horse's . One's I had a horse name Nellie..
Have a wonderful day 🏜️🤠
Thank you sir! This was one of the best videos ever on youtube!
Thank you very much .. !!! I do try
You had fun doing this one I like it
This was absolutely amazing and awesome founding those beautiful petroglyphs.
This would so awesome to do
Thank you for sharing your amazing adventure
Glad you enjoyed it thanks
Petroglyphs are always so incredible and very different!
Once again amazing video bud . Keep livin the dream bud
Really enjoy seeing the petroglyphs, keep showing them when ever you can. Thanks for sharing.
Well between the music an you whispering i was on edge of my seat like i was in some Hollywood movie. The holes drilled in those rocks got me wondering if they are miners that had drilled those.
At 24:45 on your time that almost seems like a mini cooking station on the right floor.. Neat stuff. Too much see in one day.
Awesome rock dens... Petroglyphs...grinding holes. The grave mounds, what a historical place. Hopefully, it will always stay respected, just visited and not disturb.
Another great segment, thank you.
I hope so too! Thanks
What you show us is amazing. Thank you . Hug the mules pet the dogs. Wyoming on board. Blessings
I will .. Thank you !
Thanks for the ride....... one night while transporting an RV to California , I stopped along the road in the Mojave Desert , turned of the lights, nobody around for miles and miles. got out and observed the night sky, it was breath taking to say the least as my eyes adjusted. Creation is not God but, you can see His hands in creation. I also learned to stay away from Cacti as they can puncture your flip flops or just about any thing else ouch!! Love you video's Brett....... you know your stuff.............
Thank you very much ... yes the night sky in the desert are something ..
Thanks for showing petroglyphs ! The mortar holes, first thought is where would grain grow, then when, and it leads to pre-younger dryas, even though the "experts" think they are only a couple of millennia. To me that site screams of space falls, the second Sun, making the real Sun sad, as the Egyptians visualized for atmospheric loading. The most notable is the extended tails of an omega symbol that superbolides produce from the two vortices.
If I'm not mistaken, the holes were used to crush rocks looking for metals, gold & copper look into the history of the area to see if the Francain or Jesuits were in the area. From the marking, it was on the kings trail, and the lizard was a turtle that's the bank.
That was a wonderful vid to watch, thanks! An amazing concentration of petroglyphs! That one was so articulate! Thanks again man, that was so much fun!
Great glad you liked it thank you
Firstly this was great again, nextly your music in the cave was spooky and the bit of vid with your dogs behind you when you were leaving is so cool. Tracey (Australia)
Perfect thank you .. I do try with the music
This is the first one of your videos I've watched. If you took a metal detector with you, you could probably find some really cool relics. I subscribed and will continue to watch your journeys.
Thank you ... I do have one .. I guess I need to start taking it with me ...
What a great spot! Some of those petroglyphs were Spanish, not just Indian.
Talking about rattlesnakes, there's an area South of that location where, story goes, a guy was clearing some mesquite on the ranch land and the rattlesnakes were so thick, he had to close himself up in the cab because he was flinging snakes up all over the dozer. In the evenings, the boss had to pull up to the dozer and the operator would have to jump out of the cab into the back of the truck.
that would be awful .. worst nightmare .. Thaks
Just found your channel! This is such a great old west adventure! Thank you so much for bringing us along. We are watching from northern Michigan
Welcome! Glad you found it .. Thanks!
Wow so many in one spot must have spent some time around there
My friends have always said I was born in wrong era. Nice trip. Greatly appreciated. Thanks
I think there are many of us .. Thanks
Keep up the wonderful work my friend, you help us to see what was and fill us with wonder. Ah wonder, the stuff children are born with and what adults give up on way too soon.
I got it back though lol Thanks
Neat! Thanks for taking us along.
When you think about it a few hundred years ago, someone living in New Mexico territory probably never seen a giraffe a lion, a tiger not even in a picture. They only read about it in a book.
Just found your channel, enjoy your adventure and content👍I’ll be back, keep up the journeys.
Welcome aboard! Thanks
Another great video Brett of history especially pictographs on rocks. How old? What do they mean? If Apaches what a view. I enjoyed that home away from home back then, rocks with grain grinding bowls. Seeing those grave.-Kid Yuma
well I would say you found them and so many.
Thank you first for sharing I love the sound of the horses and the dogs such a good thing I wish I could do that, also find the god or something in your travels, you never know. THANKS
Love your videos Brett great narration and content I live in Queensland Australia keep up the great work
Awesome! Thank you!
Shout out from west wendover
Great ride along Brett . I will ask the same question of another person asked. Have you ever considered packing a metal detector.
Another good one, Brett! Thanks for sparing Fat Lori the heat stress and snake danger, too. We know you love her!
lol yeah she was home resting in the shade Thanks
Have you ever had one of your hounds get snake bit ? Enjoy the adventures you share. Thank you so much.
Yes they live through it .. only had one die and she was pretty old .. Thanks
I wonder if the crosses date back to Spanish times?
Thats awsome there in the cave
Got to bring a sack of Peyote to be able to interpret those pictographs, sometimes they will even start dancing for you. 😂
lol I bet
Some of those other marks like the spider stones to. The lost Spanish treasure.
That was a really good outing. I've never seen the crosses before with the outline around them. Have you? It's almost like a symbol on a Spanish Conquistador's flag or something. Really fascinating petroglyphs. Thanks for taking us along.
Nope only place I have seen them .. Thanks for coming along
That's interesting because you've seen a lot of petroglyphs. I've never seen them in NW New Mexico when I lived there.
Wow you had me watching for snakes. If i was one that’s where i would be. I see it as an inhospitable environment. But obviously many generations called it home .
Thanks again for an amazing ride.
God Bless
We really enjoy your channel.
Good stuff love the sounds of rocks hooves and dogs panting very nice .wish we had a code book to decipher those depictions of what someone seen
I do have a book that was sent to me .. not too sure they are real accurate .. Thanks
I love seeing the old west there I live in Salton City next to the Salton sea it's kinda like the west there's scorpions and rattlesnakes here
Good glad you like seeing it .. Thanks
Woundeddove, you took the words right out of my mouth!🙂Hmmmm....he probably does not want to go down that rabbit hole!
Loving the trippy music Thank you for sharing your life with us.
Thanks .. it was kind of different lol
That cross petroglyph can be found from southern Mexico on in to the Great Basin. I’ve seen it near Laughlin, Nevada.
Wonder about it .. ? Thanks
@@BrettVaughnB100 In regards to the cross petroglyph it possibly could be either a mutual Native American symbol or something to do with trade. Unfortunately we’ll never know as the meaning has been lost to antiquity.
There is a spot in southern AZ near... a place. We used to ride all the time. Thick with pictographs and a bunch of the crosses. Pretty much Identical, I don't recall any arrows though. Beautiful. Great video and ambient music.
The barbell drawings depict ancient entities coming out & back in through the fault lines
I think your petroglyph videos are great.
Thank you .. might be running out of places to go lol
I like you being the Petroglyph hunter, I enjoy these adventures. I like all your adventures. So don't assume you are boring me. I tune in to see what you are doing even chasing a tent.
Pretty incedible
Another great video, I've been there quite a few times. It's funny but the last time I led a few members of the local 4x4 club through there and someone mentioned your channel, that's how I ended up subscribing.
That’s good thank you
Excellent 🥳
What would they grind in those holes? I LOVE your videos!! I've gone back and started watching your videos from beginning. Thank you and keep up the good work
Oh no some of those are hard to watch lol ... I'm not sure mesquite beans ? Thanks
Those drawings on the rocks made me go to Google to try and look them up, to see what they meant. They didn’t show any aliens or ant people,with any meaning, but they did explain the meaning of two circles with a line between them. Apparently, some think it represents communication, but who knows? I was searching under "Apache" and "Pueblo" but didn’t have much luck. I did come across some of those symbolic wheels, though. It’s a good way to kill some time looking them up.
Google has a bunch of photos of them with their meanings underneath, so it might be worth checking out next time, once you know what you’re looking at. I did see a couple of photos of those aliens or ant people, but who knows what they mean?
It looks like y’all are having fun, and that’s what really matters. I’m just waiting for the middle or end of September to take off on my yearly adventure-it’s been a hot summer!
Take care Solon
Great job hunting that rock art! Petroglyph village stronghold
I'm glad you showed us this place. You are absolutely right modern man has it way too easy today. Those people were tough. The Indians were tough and the settlers and prospectors were tough too. Just think about how many times we have taken antibiotics in our lives. A lot of the things would have killed us without modern medicine. Those people had none of that and had to deal with all of the adversity that came in the 1800s. It is amazing that people even survived to be 30 years old back then.
I wonder if the crosses are note of the Spanish conquistadores in the area, as they do resemble them. I was told that the holes were to hold water when it rained as it was in such short supply. Some of them placed in hunting grounds to lure animals in to drink the water. Awesome coverage.
That makes sense .. on both accounts .. my hounds have found water in those before .. Thanks
Thank you for the Arrow, very clear now to see what you are pointing out 👌
And I truly hope that you will find something, there is still stuff out there because they never could have searched every inch of the desert otherwise they would have found loads of people or things that are still out there by folks that don't mean well..
I keep my eyes open .. and your welcome and thanks for watching
Just a great video in a phenominal spot. Glad to have found you.
Thanks .. glad you found us too (Us = Mules and Hounds lol)
I liked thisn 👍🏻
But I missed Fat Lorrie but maybe it was to hot an dangerous ???
Bret do what you wanna do .lifes to short to try an please us lol
The ones that matter will watch
The good Lord will provide!!!
All the hand prints, they Were showing us they were human beings . Where you said ,There's that sad man,,, I thought it was two aliens on a space craft.. lol ! Well I've heard people say, Indians saw things not normal also..
Always a great video, you go to some really nice places.
I try thank you
I for one enjoy viewing the petroglyphs, Thank you very much for showing us our true history!
You show us fantastic prehistory my friend! Keep it up. I worry about you and your rock dogs. It's a great show! Rk.
Thank you very much!
Why would you stop the petroglyph videos? They are fantastic! I can tell you from personal experience that you do not want to get bit by a rattlesnake!
Yes More of the petroglyphs
I really enjoy your videos!!
Your dogs meals and videos are amazing❤blessed
I love watching your videos. I was born in NM and miss it so.
❤❤❤❤❤
Love when you go out and find the petroglyphs I will ride along with you anytime great video.........👍
Thanks 👍
There's a guy on the net that can read those pictographs and he lives in your neck of the woods. He's found allot of Spanish treasures and others by follow this pictographs.
Lets see his his name Terry?
I am not convinced the crosses all over the place were etched by Native people, it's not like anything else I have ever seen. They must have been made by the invaders.
Please don't turn anything over to our Gov..
lol but I am a law abiding citizen
@BrettVaughnB100 that's right and Gov ain't.
@22:41. "Lilo". Who was Lilo? You will find this at many of the regional petroglyphs sites in about a 70 mile+ radius. I wrote an article on on my website. Would be a good one to solve. I think that the outlined equi-length cross is Native - not a treasure sign. Some archies say it was to commemerate a supernova that used to be visible in the sky. I think it may just be a sacred four directions sort of thing. There is what looks like a post-contact glyph in that panel. It's the circled traditional cross with the extra hash mark. FPS definitely has Aztec-looking glyphs. Not sure you caught those in this video. They are more panel-like and there's even a Mayan-looking number glyph. The one at 28:18 is getting closer to looking Aztec-ish. Please don't give out exact locations on the internet. Please don't _step on_ glyphs even to get a good picture! Your whole animal entourage thing is awesome!!
We need to talk sometime .. I just got back from over by the missile range .. I will have a video coming out this afternoon with a little bit of the story about Doc Noss .. get me your number when you have time .. Thanks
Snakes are cold-blooded so they hide during hot times and hunt when it's cooler. Hot days they're out of sight... The idea that they thrive in heat is a total myth.
Fun video but I miss the dogs chasing the lions ?
We are always looking for them .. just don't think RUclips likes us looking for them lol Thanks
petroglyph @17:17 are the same symbols found on hopi and anasazi pottery
