"Rock Art in the Arizona Desert Located between Boulder City, Nevada, and Kingman, Arizona , off of US 93, Chloride is the home to a massive rock mural painted by Roy Purcell. The mural is painted across several rocks that are located on the far side of the town. The entire collection of paintings stands 30 feet tall and is known as “The Journey.” It depicts several symbols that have spiritual meanings such as the yin and yang, the serpent and the sun and moon. Purcell originally painted the rocks in 1966 and 1967, and they have been restored since then, so the colors are bright and vibrant. By AFAR Traveler , AFAR Local Expert"

The town, the paintings, and the petroglyphs were excellent. Loved the bar in town....a must stop and see. Had a good time exploring all around the area. Craziness abounds.

I chose to walk from town, about 1.5 miles each way and it was a scenic walk up the mountain. The murals themselves are absolutely beautiful. What is even more amazing is how there are petroglyphs right there too, a place where ancient and modern art meet. Truly a life changing experience. Can't wait to go back and explore the little town more!

Really cool Mural. Dirt road, but accessible by most vehicles

The murals are interesting and worth seeing at least once. It is said that the artist still lives in the town of Chloride. Be advised: It is a bumpy dirt road with limited passing space for other vehicles. While in Chloride, you can drive the little streets and check out the local flare. Approximately 400 residents live here still.

What a neat place this is to visit. We took advice of VICKY FLIPFLOP'S blog and went to Chloride on our way to the grand canyon. The general store was fun and the nice lady running it was very helpful. We drove up to the mural and spent a little time in awe of the amazing scenery. It is basically a goat path up to it, but we did it in a mini van without any struggles. Lots of interesting yard art around Chloride as well. People were very friendly and the whole adventure probably added an hour and a half to hour trip to the canyon. I recommend it. Very peaceful adventure with minimal cell phone service for us 😊

It was interesting. The artist painted the murals in 1966. His children and grandchildren later came back and added the blue. The road get rough but my corolla made it no problem.

Neat hidden gem. The road is a bit bumpy, if you have a truck ok. Be cautious with a small car, like me. Did some hiking up in there too.
