Red Bear Panel in Black & White
Here’s a large panel of red pictographs found on Cedar Mesa known as the Red Bear Panel. When I first came across this impressive panel, I was surprised as just how large the bear in the middle was. This photo doesn’t do it’s size justice. While bear petroglyphs are pretty common around Western Colorado and the Moab area, I can’t recall seeing any other bear imagery on Cedar Mesa before?
Horsecollar Ruins
A few weekends ago I was hiking down in White Canyon within Natural Bridges National Monument with my friend Jackson when I was finally able to visit the Horsecollar Ruins. This set of ruins are named ‘horsecollar’ because of the unusual shape of the doorways on these two structures. I thought this photo looked good in black and white.
Cave 7 Ruin
Let’s take a break today from my Arizona trip photos so that I can post up a photo of a ruin. I visited Cave 7 back in January of this year, and it was an amazing experience. For those who are unfamiliar with the history of Cave 7, check out this trip report on my blog that has a little bit of information and history on the site. This is the remaining wall of a structure that was built in part of the very large alcove.

Doll House Granary
A small granary tucked underneath a low alcove in the Doll House area of Canyonlands National Park. I hiked to this one in the spring when I spent a few days in the Maze. I think this one looked much better in black and white.
