“Death Valley Tuff” Petroglyphs

What is truly amazing about this small petroglyph site in Death Valley is that it is in plain view and people pass by it every day. I didn’t notice it until it was pointed out to me it is so well hidden in plain sight. If you find it, please respect it and… keep it quiet. You will always pass it in the future with a smile on your face.

I need to go back and try and get some better photos.

"You have found a valuable example of our cultural heritage. Please help us preserve it by not vandalizing it further."

Faint but interesting curvilinear designs.

Note the four faint pictograph lines on the left side.

There are many hard to see petroglyphs carved into the ash layer.

These sheep show up nicely against the desert varnish.

Lots of designs.
