These sacred cry songs and dances remind us of our shared history and guide each spirit through our lands. The spirits, or the ancestors of our ancestors, call Sloan Canyon home and left behind messages, or petroglyphs for  \nthe world.  \nAs you travel through our land, we invite you to connect with us and understand what once was.  \nThe Tortoise Petroforms are the guardians of Sloan Canyon and  \nwatch over the petroglyphs.
