We didn’t have much time to explore this area, but the short amount of time we had it showed us its natural beauty.  We also found some spots with pictographs and a few petroglyphs.  It’s definitely an area I need to head back to and spend a long weekend exploring, there’s a lot of promising looking areas for fun hikes, rock scrambling and finding more ancient rock art.

Jon Harman, Ph D, developed a program called DStretch to help digitally enhance faded pictographs.  The gallery below include enhanced pictures using DStretch:
