This is just one of many very unusual Barrier Canyon Style pictographs found in a large alcove and known as the Birdcage Panel. This isn’t the only figure here with a small round head, but it certainly is the most prominent and can be seen from down canyon if you know where to look. I’ll be posting some more photos from this panel in the next few days.
Here’s a portion of another petroglyph panel near Moab that I revisited over the weekend. There’s a few very cool panels located up here above the Colorado River, but unfortunately there is also a lot of vandalism and graffiti up here, too…
The Lonesome Shaman floats alone above the canyon. I’ve visited this pictograph a few times and thought it would be good to finally post a photo on my blog of it since I visited it again on Saturday.
I’ve posted a photo of this particular petroglyph in Kane Creek Canyon before since it’s one of my favorites. I was having a little fun and experimenting when I took this shot….I like the way it turned out.
Since I didn’t visit any rock art this weekend for a change, I’m going to post a photo of this large bear found near Moab since I did drive by it yesterday on my way home. This is a well known petroglyph panel found near Moab along the Potash Road. The large bear appears to be a newer addition to this panel than the other figures and is actually superimposed over a few of them.
