The Three Rivers site is located along a low ridge in the Tularosa Basin a bit closer to the Sacramento Mountains to the east than to the San Andres range to the west. Jornada-Mogollon petroglyphs are found there on the smooth black boulders that top the ridge in great profusion – there are said to be over 20,000 images.
Nearly every design attributed to the culture is found at Three Rivers, but many like this great jaguar figure are also unique in their scale and boldness.
