Due to destruction resulting from modern farming practices, Circle 1 is less preserved than some of the other guachimontones and as a result only a portion of its platforms have been restored.
The altar of Circle 1 once had a deep looter’s pit, which has been filled and stabilized to allow tourists to climb to the top.
