 Mill Creek

One of two small panels near the dam on Mill Creek. I suspect that they are often missed my most hikers because of their position above the trail and behind anyone climbing up a step set of boulders at this point. They may be more visible to those hiking out, however, due to their generally north facing alignment, they are in shadow most of the day. And, again, at this point, hikers are concerned with climbing down the set of boulders. I only noticed them because I turned back to see if Anne was making the climb in good shape.

We have not made it to the better known panels in this location, but once we do so, we will post images on this page. See below for a few more shots of these two panels.


This is the larger of the two small panels. The images here appear to be Fremont Culture images of a traditional nature. There are a few anthropomorphs, several zoomorphs, and several graphic images, including wandering lines and sequential marks.
