Thanks ,Monte. Your stories are a great read,and the rock art photos fantastic.

 

Great suggestion about taking pictures of yourselves at the beginning of a hike.

I also like to take a picture of certain places on a trail  turn that could look different on the return.

Like you said you can't leave things to memory when you can take a photo.

 

Anxious for more of the story.

Frank

Thanks again for sharing another interesting trip! Cool trilobites and petroglyphs. We will spend most of a month, beginning in mid-March, in DVNP and environs. Mostly on the east and south sides. It is a huge park -- bigger than some states. Lots to explore, see and do.

Don't forget the totally cool basalt dike intruding the bright buff/white tuff!  

 

Looking forward to the next installment!

May I add that the ski3pins are delightful companions on the trail (or off) and in camp. They suffered through some fruitless searches on our quest to find ancient artifacts, with nary a complaint. Then again we had some great luck on another day. So it averaged out ok!
