Morning camp in Rods

Looking back at yesterday’s route

Looking forward

Going to the Temple

Henry Mountains

Nice to see some new wilderness areas

Pronghorns

Temple pictographs exfoliating

Some gunshot damage

Heading in to the Reef

Three fingers

Quite a contrast

The Reef is impressive

At the trailhead

There’s the canyon

Starting the 8 mile day hike

Heading  in to the canyon

Big water tanks full

Blooms

Narrow spot

Almost walking on the art!

First petroglyphs. Be careful not to walk on them!

Dual suns?

Flying?

Snakes and stuff

Figures

Interesting marks

Sheep

Insect?

Swimmer

Growth and movement

Flowering plant?

Sheep and dancing?

People, comets, suns adn a jerky cowboy initial

So many images

Animal forms and more

Dots are like stars in the sky and turtle forms

A conversation of images

Lightening?

Ghosts and ladders

Sheep and counting lines

Heading up the canyon

Long tall plant form and cowboy graffiti

Unusual shadow, Pareidolia

Natural chemical stains paint a picture on the rock

Looking back to the mouth of the canyon

Princes Plume

Life surviving

The loop

Up the boulder field

Contrasts of color

Out Greasewood. The truck is out there in the distance

Bloody business!

Over confidence in the boulder field has consequences. 3 fingers worth

Two layers of reef upthrust. Tim leading the bushwhack

Back at the truck and first aid time!
