Wupatki National Monument is one of 299 areas (as of 1974) administered by the National Park Service, U. S. Department of the Interior. These include such magnificent scenic areas as Grand Canyon and Yosemite National Parks, and other Parks and Monuments set aside for outstanding scenic, scientific, and historical values.

The National Park Service has the responsibility of preserving the Parks and Monuments in their natural, unspoiled condition and of making them available for your enjoyment in such manner as to leave them unimpaired for the enjoyment and inspiration of future generations. To achieve this high purpose such destructive activities as woodcutting, hunting, grazing, mining and even flower-picking are prohibited. We hope you will join with us in protecting Wupatki National Monument by taking only pictures and inspiration and leaving only footprints and good will.

The uniformed employees of the National Park Service are here to serve you and will welcome the opportunity to make your stay in Wupatki more enjoyable.

KEEP AMERICA BEAUTIFUL
