#Epstein had #petroglyphs moved for décor at #ZorroRanch, federal records show

By Clara Bates, Mar 3, 2026

"Over the years at Zorro Ranch, Jeffrey Epstein instructed his staff multiple times to move petroglyphs estimated to be hundreds of years old for the purpose of decoration, U.S. Justice Department emails and photos released in January show.

" 'Petroglyph rocks moved to the main house,' a Zorro property manager wrote in a 2001 project memo emailed to Epstein, noting 'JE to let us know the size, location and how many rocks he would like.'

" 'Jeff to find larger rocks,' the manager wrote a few days later.

"In a 2014 email to former Microsoft executive and paleontological researcher Nathan Myhrvold, Epstein asked, 'how do i cut and polish … the granite with petroglyphs on the ranch?'

"Myhrvold didn't respond to a request for comment Tuesday.

"When the ranch manager was designing planter beds the following year and asked Epstein whether he would be OK with rocks in one section, Epstein responded with a request: 'yes„ nice it would be great to get some big ones with petroglyphs even better.' (The email quotes in this story are verbatim, including typos.)

"The following year, Epstein requested 'large petroglyphs' be included in another outside design.

" 'The destruction and removal of petroglyphs and #CulturalSites at Zorro Ranch is deeply troubling, yet not surprising considering what has come to light about Jeffrey Epstein,' #JoeySanchez, chair of the All Pueblo Council of Governors, said in a statement. 'These sites hold profound significance as part of the living history of the #Pueblos across the Southwest, reflecting the enduring connection between our people and the land."

Men are generally idle, and ready to satisfy themselves, and intimidate the industry of others, by calling that impossible which is only difficult.

This is one of those basic points that have to be made over and over again until you get bored. We do not have a divine mandate to make everybody live longer. We have a human mandate to listen to people and fulfill their wishes for what remains of their lives.

I had tried to stop by White River Narrows on my first pass, but things didn't go well. I tried again. It's kind of overwhelming when you do get to the right places. Perhaps I should have retreated to Narrows I at the end to help quiet the mind?

Crystal Wash isn't exactly "full" of petroglyphs, but two clusters are on a rough interpretive trail and if you have the brochure, you might be able to find them. I did, and I did.
