Peter,
Incredible stuff!
The petroglyphs look like they were "carved" into the stone as opposed to pigments being used.
How's the weather. Is it really hot yet?

Tony
the petroglyphs are etched in the rock, there is some art that has pigment also, but they are not as common.
Temperature hit 95 today but only 13% relative humidity.
If you get out early it isn't too bad.

Pap, tomorrow is beer and wings at the Moab Brewery.

Peter

Went on a hike up on the Moab rim today, 1000 foot climb initially to get above the river and a view of the town from part of the rim. We did a good bit of exploring on the sandstone domes and saw some really nice petroglyphs and nice alcoves, but no ruins. Some of the domes have steep drop offs, so you have to go back the way you come.
We had a big sandstorm on Saturday and the sky was brown, but the wind was mild today
Randall model 28 in mini arch so you can see the scale
And no, I don't work for the Moab tourism department smile

Very cool stuff, super pictures. Sure looks like the old natives had a lot of desert sheep to eat. Probably their main red meat source. Interesting.

Peter,
More great shots. Unbelievable country!
... Maybe you SHOULD work for the Moab Tourist Department.
