Exploring Rock Art visits Lower Arrow Canyon, NV

After visiting Upper Arrow Canyon for several years, we finally ventured in to Lower Arrow Canyon. To view the Lower Arrow Canyon petroglyphs a hike through a narrow slot canyon is recommended. This site has become very well known, and the BLM has blocked off the road so that better than a mile hike is required.

Exploring Rock Art visits Scheurtz Wash, Utah

Scheurtz Wash has many spellings of its name. The petroglyphs are spread out on better than 1/2 mile and there are many that are easily visible. However it has one extraordinarily beautiful petroglyph, one that is noted in by many Rock Art societies and the picture is attached.

Exploring Rock Art visits Willow Springs, AZ

Willow Springs draws us like a magnet. As the story goes, each tribe heading to the
Grand Canyon to collect salt, stopped by the Willow Springs site to add a clan symbol to the rocks. Specific rocks within the site have many clan symbols on them. Note this site is located on Navaho tribal land.

Please note that there is significant damage to this site and if a large amount of graffiti turns your stomach, it might be best to visit other sites.

Exploring Rock Art visits a Historical Site

Although we focus on Native American Rock Art, a number of historical inscriptions (VCHIST) also sparked our interest. This ARTICULAR group was found in the Vermillion Cliffs and includes many inscriptions identifying early settlers and the hardships they faced. Historical Inscriptions might become an addition to our photograph offering.

Exploring Rock Art at Muuputs Canyon

Muuputs (Owl) Canyon is located on the Kaibab Paiute reservation close to Pipe Springs, AS. To visit the rock art, a tribal guide has to be present. Two nice panels are shown, plus one very high and far away. Fortunately, we were able to improve our photograph of this panel. See Panel 3 at Muuputs Canyon in Mohave County, Arizona to review the latest photographs.

Exploring Rock Arts Guide to Muuputs Canyon will soon be available.

Exploring Rock Art east of Colorado City, AZ

Yesterday we ventured out on dirt roads east of Colorado City, AZ.

We were very fortunate to find a small petroglyphs site shown as CBEP. Very nice symbolism.

In addition we were fortunate to find a small pictograph site, which we labeled CBWW.


Please review both pages on www.exploringrockart.com. We will soon be producing Exploring Rock Art Guides for both sites.

Exploring Rock Art visited Coconino County, AZ

In late October 2010, we were fortunate to visit Coconino County with with some valuable site information available. We have posted to www.exploringrockart.com, a few photographs of several Native American Rock Art sites: BBAF, BDYC, HSRP, RTDM, RTDR, RTDS, and TTLC. Very memorable visions include the large number of quadrapeds at BBAF, and the large serpents at TTLC.
