I saw this on Desert USA and thought some might like to read it. It is a bit different that the usual trip report. Okay maybe it is a lot different.

I had seen that sometime ago, he also has what appears to be a trip prior that over sensationalized report here http://www.authorsden.com/visit/viewarticle.asp?AuthorID=3199&id=9196

Isn't that cave in Indian Hill?
Isn't that the solstice cave or something like that?

I've heard of a Shamans cave in the Carrizo Gorge by the Palms.

Hi and welcome to the forum.

Have not heard of a Shaman's Cave by Carrizo Palms.
I have heard that term used to refer to Indian Hill.

Interesting though. Maybe time for a scouting trip?

You have to flip the pages, to page 20. Same article, much better pix.

The Shaman Cave story on DesertUSA offers a fascinating glimpse into the rich cultural and spiritual history of the American Southwest. It captures the mystery and reverence surrounding the sacred places used by Native American shamans for rituals and ceremonies. The article paints a vivid picture of the desert landscape and the hidden stories carved into stone, passed down through generations. I was especially intrigued by the blend of natural beauty and spiritual symbolism described in the narrative. This is a must-read for anyone interested in Native American heritage, desert exploration, or the mystical side of the Southwest. https://teerresulttoday.org/

Thanks for posting. Will have to check out. Welcome to the forum!

Trekking in the wilderness. I try to connect with the sense of awe and wonder the ancient native people must have felt.

The pictures in the article are from the artwork from Indian hill. Compared them to the ones I took.
