The rock art designs were carved by early Native Americans on sandstone. The Hamilton Farm Petroglyphs and surrounding archaeological site were listed on the National Register of Historic Places in 1974.[1]
There were 25 designs cataloged, when they were inspected in 1961. These included: include bear tracks, deer tracks, human footprints, a snail or spiral, human figures with upraised arms, and a "Spirit Otter." They are within an 18-foot square section of the stone, at an elevation of 1,460 feet.[2] See also
