Arizona - Native American Relics

I want to share some information about a great place to relic hunt for Pottery, Tools and Trinkets etc.

I was introduced to an area NW of Heber, AZ where the locals for years have been finding Native American Relics of years past. About 25 miles NW of Heber lies an area called Chevelon Retreat. The forest lands leading up to this private land retreat are filled with pottery, arrowheads, and every other thing leftover from the Native Americans for hundreds of years. These relics would be from the Anasazi and Zuni Indians. The forest is considered high desert with sparse growth of cedar and pinion pine and a few remaining alligator junipers.

An excellent place to spend a weekend walking the land as they did.

Given current interpretations of the Archaeological Resources Protection Act, I would think twice before I did any surface collecting on Federal land and I definitely would NOT do it on land administered by the Arizona State Trust Fund.  I also would not be caught with any digging implement if I did decide to surface collect on Federal land.  Private property, though, is fine as long as you have the owner's permission
