National Sanctuary are designated by Congress to save, protect, improve and handle public land locations for the advantage and enjoyment of present and future generations.

Appreciating Rock Art


Sloan Canyon is among the premier rock art websites in Southern Nevada. To keep the petroglyphs beautiful, please do not touch the rock art because contact with the oils in skin will harm them. You may take pictures and sketches, however rubbings are not allowed. Avoid climbing near rock art sites.
