Hat Thief! In Anza Borrego State Park California | Metal Sculptures in Galleta Meadows

Scattered around Anza-Borrego Desert State Park are dozens of large metal sculptures dotting the landscape, their rusty forms blending naturally with their sandy surroundings, despite not being what you’d expect to find in a desert.

Large sculptures of dinosaurs, horses, sloths, tortoises, mammoths, saber-toothed cats, dragons and more, appear to be roaming across the barren land surrounding the tiny village of Anza Borrego Springs, just waiting to be found.

This unique attraction in Borrego Springs was the vision of local landowner Dennis Avery. He wanted to add free standing art to his property, the Galleta Meadows Estate, so commissioned artist and welder Ricardo Breceda to craft some sculptures for him.

The first sculptures appeared on Avery’s land along Borrego Springs Road in April 2008, and ever since then the collection has continued to grow. There are now over 130 metal sculptures. So come along with us and our friends at ‪@WhereTheyWander22‬ and see how many we find.
