Bluff panels

Following the advice of the cashier at our restaurant last night, we found more beautiful panels. The hike up to the area was not easy. We followed a ridge about 400 to 500 ft. up to the edge of the cliff where the 900 year old rock art was located.

This panel showed animals and anthropomorphic figures as well as many other unidentifiable shapes.


This anthropomorphic figure looked as though it was giving birth, and a breach birth as well! Many daily events in life are depicted in these panels.

To get to each new panel we had to traverse across some precarious ledges. Below the girls are following along and not looking down.

The panels in this area were some of the best we've seen. The position from up so high was especially good. In spite of the difficult hike up, we enjoyed early morning shade and cool air.
