They are located on and around Jeffry Cliff in Hancock County, although the address is restricted. The petroglyphs cover a roughly 9-acre (0.036 km²) area and are open to public access. These petroglyphs were designated a National Historical Site by the National Park Service on September 8, 1989, and were subsequently assigned the reference number 89001191.
