I'm going down next weekend 11-10 and was wondering if anybody had the gps coords. for the cave paintings around there. Also Palomar canyon. Where to turn off and where the springs are.
Any info would help.
Thanks Mick

Actually they are south of Guadalupe.
I know where they are, I can drive to them, but do not know the coordinates...never took any.

If you look around there are petrographs (painted) and petroglyphs (pecked) throughout the area as well as 100's of bedrock morters

and lot's of pottery too...

This was somewhere south of G- Canyon in an un-named (to me) canyon. It was just a few minutes scramble up the wash from where we parked.
