Moab 2020 - Part 6

About 30 miles north of Moab is a Native American pictograph panel in Sego Canyon.  This site includes Barrier Canyon style images possibly up to 6,000 years old.


 

 





These Fremont Culture petroglyphs are much more recent.

 


We read about an impressive Native American pictograph panel in Courthouse Wash near Moab that had been severely vandalized in 1980.  We made the short hike to the panel to see how bad the damage was and what remained.


The center of this image is the area where the panel is located.


The current condition of the panel


Only a few images appear to remain reasonably visible.
