We do not provide directions to the Trail Lakes site in Southwest Wyoming which is well known and frequently visited. A couple mile hike (with a lot of elevation changes) and 3-4 hours visitation time should suffice. The site can be viewed leisurely although I now have been led to believe that the site is on Private Land - research this to satisfy yourself, I am not positive.
The Ebook has 35 pages of petroglyph images. If you desire to visit, do your homework (published offline and online information, topo maps, etc.) on the site and visit a BLM office in Wyoming or a museum in Dubois, Wy. They might help you but published information will probably be sufficient.
The Ebook is designed to inform:
A researcher, photographer, artist, or writer who wants to preview the site before a planned visitation to examine the Rock Art to be seen and determine that the site fits the Research Plan and Objectives.
Interested advocates who want to review the book prior to visitation to make sure the Rock Art at the site will be interesting to them.
If time is of essence, as on a vacation or a weekend, the more interesting sites can be visited, saving the other sites until later when more time might be available.
The Rock Art advocate whose objective is to “see all the sites” can use the Ebook to allocate their time to the most interesting sites and to the most interesting areas of a particular site.
And finally, the visitor who does not photograph or who visited with a malfunctioning camera, can obtain a permanent record of the site for their use.
From my viewpoint, the Ebook serves as a personal recording (digital photo) of the site. This recording will likely outlast me and serves as a forum to discuss the site attributes with researchers, scholars, and interested Rock Art advocates who desire more information.
