Rock Art Tours: Halo Shelter


9:00 am - 4:30 pm

Join the Witte Museum for a hiking tour to the Halo Shelter!

Located in a tributary near the pristine Devils River north of Comstock, Halo Shelter features some of the best preserved Pecos River style pictographs in the region. The site gets its name from the unique “halos” that are painted above the heads of several figures.
