World renowned Native American petroglyphs and pictographs are found all along a 200 foot high sandstone cliff. The rock art is on private land, but access is allowed as long as visitors obey all signs and do not damage the panels. There are not many other sites that present so much rock art in such a compact, easily accessible area. The trails provide close access to these Fremont Culture images.
