Protected from the elements by a small overhang, these Barrier Canyon style pictographs are remarkably well preserved considering they were most likely applied to the rock several thousand years ago. While we can only speculate as to their meaning, the close resemblance of the four round circles to a comet with a tail would suggest that perhaps it depicts a shaman holding a snake in an attempt to ward off danger during a fly-by of Halley's comet thousands of years ago. Unfortunately, the figure to the left is being slowly obliterated by a small flow of water which drips down the face of the overhang during wet periods. This vertical photograph was captured with a 6x7 format camera. All photos in these fine art photo galleries may be ordered as fine art framed prints or for stock photography usage.
