Pets

Pets are permitted at Chiricahua National Monument. Dogs must be on a leash at all times and not left alone. You may walk your dog on the lower canyon trails between the campground, visitor center, and entrance station, plus the Natural Bridge and Sugarloaf Mountain Trails. You may not bring your pets on any of the other park trails. This is for the safety of your dog and protection of the wildlife.

 

The natural entrance of Carlsbad Cavern.  

Did You Know?
In 2003, a park employee found a piece of a stone scraper within view of Carlsbad Cavern's entrance that goes back to Ice Age Indian hunters. In 2004, archeologists found fragments of two spear points of the Midland-style Paleo Indian projectile points of some 10,000 years ago.
