| Gila Cliff Dwellings National Monument :- Gila Cliff Dwellings National Monument offers a glimpse of the homes and lives of the people of the Mogollon culture who lived in the Gila Wilderness from the 1280s through the early 1300s. The surroundings probably look today very much like they did when the cliff dwellings were inhabited. It is surrounded by the Gila National Forest and lies in the middle of the Gila Wilderness, the nation's first designated wilderness area. Wildernes designation means that the wilderness character of the area will not be altered by the intrusion of roads or other evidence of human presence. Check out our quick link to the left to obtain the following documents: Park Brochure; Cliff Dwellings Trail Map; Camping near the Gila Cliff Dwellings; Dayhikes in the Gila Wilderness; Geology of the Gila Cliff Dwellings; Common Plants in the Vicinity of Gila Cliff Dwellings; Birds of the Gila National Forest Checklist; Fish, Amphibians, Reptiles and Mammals of the Gila National Forest checklist. ACCESSIBILITY Due to the roughness and elevation gains of the one mile trail to the Cliff Dwellings, this trail is not wheelchair accessible. Part of the Trail to the Past at the nearby Lower Scorpion Campground is wheelchair accessible (for viewing of pictographs) as is the Visitor Center. FOR KIDS Junior Ranger Program Upon completion of the program, the Jr. Ranger is awarded with a certificate of completion as well as a Jr. Ranger badge incorporating a design showing two birds from the classic black and white pottery of the Mimbres branch of the Mogollon people. |
