Cary's Sun Cave

Super Cave Pictographs
Brooklyn Mine (Boulder Creek District)
I couldn’t find much history on this spot, only that it was worked on in 1907 for silver, lead, zinc, and some copper. Reportedly, it was an underground hydraulic operation to wash ore out of the vein. That must have been something to see.
Paiute Cave Pictographs
A set of Virgin Anasazi pictographs is inside a collapsed lava tube in the Arizona Strip. They believed that caves were the entrance to the spirit world. This is a sacred place.
The pictographs are protected from the elements by the cave ceiling, and as such, they are particularly vibrant.
