Petroglyphs

This morning we went on a sports car drive and hike, and on the way back to Moab, we stopped to see this group of petroglyphs. We were surprised at where they were; we'd driven right past them earlier and didn't even see them. It's because a road engineering and cleanup project years ago had an unexpected effect: removing a steep talus slope put the figures about 30 feet off the ground, out of reach. Aren't these great figures?


We must have disturbed a small bat at one point; he flew right in front of my face and landed on the rock. With my long lens I was able to get a pretty good look at him.
