Since I’ve been posting a lot of photos from my recent trips, I thought it might be a good idea to post something from earlier this year. This is one of my favorite horned-snake petroglyphs found in Nine Mile Canyon. This one is part of the Family Panel, which we visited back in May of this year.
Since I am on a roll posting photos of petroglyphs near McKee Springs, here’s another one I took on my recent trip to Dinosaur National Monument.
After spending most of the day at the Dinosaur Quarry and along the Tour of the Tilted Rocks in Dinosaur National Monument, we drove up to the McKee Springs petroglyph panels for sunset. I have been to these panels before and they are certainly among my favorites, which is why I wanted to get some better photos of them. Visiting these panels at sunset with a great sky was just amazing, and I came away with a lot of great photos. This is probably my favorite panel in the park and I really like they way this photo turned out. I hope you like it, too!
This is one of the many awesome petroglyph panels located near McKee Springs in Dinosaur National Monument. When we visited again last month my goal was to photograph these panels around sunset which worked out really well.
The weekend after getting back home from my trip to Arizona we headed up to Dinosaur National Monument so that we could visit the newly-opened Dinosaur Quarry. After checking out the dinosaur bones we took a drive along Cub Creek so that I could visit the petroglyphs found there. This lizard is one of the more impressive ones to be found in the area. Don’t let the photo fool you, it’s bigger than it looks! There are many petroglyphs of lizards found here which I haven’t seen anywhere else.
