Palisade Point Petroglyphs
Sunday, March 14, 2011
On Sunday I had some stuff I wanted to get done around the house, so I decided to stay close to home and take a short hike to some petroglyphs I haven’t been to before on Palisade Point. The panoramic photo above was taken over the Grand Valley from Palisade Point near the petroglyphs.
Here’s a few photos of the petroglyphs I found. Most of them were of bighorn sheep and elk.

Palisade Point Sheep
The following two photos are the only petroglyphs I found that are not of an animal (bighorn or elk). The first one is just one concentric circle I found all by itself away from the rest of the panels. I’m not sure what the petroglyphs are in the second photo below, but they sure are different from the rest of them. They were hidden between two panels containing bighorn sheep. Any ideas?
