Most of them are 20-25 minutes, but this one is 13. In this one he finds petroglyphs, graffiti from the 1890's, and two circular stone structures on top of a ridge. Pretty scenery.

And did their parents tell them if they didn't straighten up and get a job they wouldn't amount to [bleep]?

Visited only a few, but I have a hankering to see stuff like Deer Medicine Rocks in Montana and the Medicine Wheel in think in Michigan or Minnesota. Thanks for passing it along!

He is good at finding locations...by Google Earth for example He is a back packing guide in Yellowstone/Teton's area My particular Utah location has many pictograph/petroglyph panels..betting he has hiked locally I'd even venture to say some still undiscovered in the untraveled canyons What I've observed...main characters depicted ? Desert Sheep....antlered game....snakes....alien type figures...people from tribe....etc Some estimated to be 1000's of years old My observations also....natives favored south facing canyon walls/alcoves to create these panels & live Pics....locally T R U M P W O N !
