Fremont Indian State Park | Set 1
February 11 & 12, 2011
After driving to Richfield and checking into our hotel early, we headed straight for Fremont Indian State Park. We ended up spending the rest of the day there until it got dark and then we returned on Saturday for another full day of exploring the park. Instead of boring you with our movements throughout the day, I’m just going to post a bunch of the photos I took with a little info about each. These are in no particular order.
The largest anthropomorph in the park seems to be standing guard over Clear Creek Canyon. To the left there appears to be a hunting scene with thirteen bighorn sheep.
Newspaper Rock is the largest petroglyph panel in the park. It contains over 250 elements carved into the rock.
A couple of bighorn sheep right next to Newspaper Rock.
A petroglyph panel near Newspaper Rock along the Rim Trail.
This anthropomorph along the Court of Ceremonies Trail has been modified by a bullet hole giving it the name Cyclops.
A large petroglyph panel along the Parade of Rock Art Trail glowing in the early morning sunlight.
