Fish Creek Cove
Sunday, February 13, 2011
After spending almost two full days at Fremont Indian State Park it was time to start heading home. Instead of taking I-70 all the way home like we had taken there, we headed west towards Boulder Mountain and Capitol Reef so that we could make a few more stops. Our first stop was Fish Creek Cove to check out the Headless Elk Pictograph Panel and other pictographs and petroglyphs.
A closer look at the headless elk pictographs.
One and a half Fremont anthropomorphic pictographs.
A few more pictographs located next to The Headless Elk Panel.
A close-up of two of the headless elk.
After searching the alcove in Fish Creek Cove for more pictographs and petroglyphs I found this ‘pictoglyph’ in the shade of a tree. I kind of like the effect of the shaded and sunny areas in this photo.

A two-toned ‘shield-like’ figure
Stay tuned for the last part of this trip report in Capitol Reef.
