Moab Area Rock Art IV | Monday, February 21, 2011
Since I had Presidents Day off from work and the weather was going to be nice, Jackson and I headed to the Moab area in search of some more rock art and to just do some hiking and exploring. We couldn’t have asked for a better day in February, and we managed to find quite a bit of rock art.

Bright and early Saturday morning, Amanda and I got up and headed west to the San Rafael Swell. We knew it was probably going to snow on us, but we didn’t realize just how much it was going to snow and for how long. We were meeting our friend Dave at the Rochester Creek Panel at 8:30am, and I gave us what I thought was plenty of time to get there. Unfortunately, once we reached the San Rafael Reef, we hit the snow. The interstate was covered, so driving was slower than I had planned. We finally made it to the Rochester Panel shortly after 9am, and I was expecting to find Dave waiting for us. However, he ended up arriving about 20 minutes later because he got stuck driving slow in the snow much longer than we had since he was coming from the Salt Lake area.

Amanda and I both took off Friday from work for my birthday so that we could spend a long weekend at Fremont Indian State Park. On Friday morning we were up early and then headed west into Utah. On our way there, we made a quick stop to get a few photos of the Tree of Life petroglyph panel.

After finishing searching for rock art in Indian Creek Canyon, I continued on down the highway to the Needles District of Canyonlands National Park. Since all of the 4×4 roads in the park were closed I figured that I would complete some of the easier and shorter hikes that I always pass by on my way elsewhere. I started out with the very short hike to the Roadside Ruin.

On Sunday I headed back to Moab to search out some rock art in Mill Creek Canyon. Unfortunately, I wasn’t able to hike up canyon as far as I had hoped because the water was too high and it was pretty cold out, but I did manage to get to these boulders which are covered in petroglyphs.
