The V-Bar-V Heritage Site is the largest known petroglyph site in the Verde Valley of central Arizona, and one of the best-preserved. The rock art site consists of 1,032 petroglyphs in 13 panels. Acquired by the Coconino National Forest in 1994, the site is protected and kept open to the public by the US Forest Service. Volunteers from the (Verde Valley Archaeological Society ) and the (Friends of the Forest ) provide interpretive tours and on-site management.〔 A visitor center, restroom and bookstore, operated by the Forest Service and the (Arizona Natural History Association ), is located on site. The fenced petroglyph site is an easy half-mile walk from the parking lot. For most of the year, there is a resident on-site custodian. ==History== The petroglyphs were created by Southern Sinagua residents between about 1150 and 1400 AD. The site was known to early American settlers, and became part of the historic V-Bar-V ranch around 1907. The ranch headquarters were nearby, and the ranchers protected the site from vandalism. Some historic ranch buildings remain near the Visitor Center. The US Forest Service acquired the site in 1994.〔2005, Friends of the Forest, V-Bar-V Heritage Site tour guide pamphlet, for sale at the site.〕
