| no partners | | A few years ago I saw a named feature on a map and concluded "well there's gotta be petroglyphs there". Small complication is that it's on the Reservation and to do it right, I needed a permit to visit. There's only a little bit about this place on the internet, and I don't want to add to it, so I won't name it here.
Covid-time, forget it. The Reservation was closed. After that, their Parks and Rec people didn't know anything about the location but said things like "the people who live out there might not want you there". Recently I stumbled on to a different department (Heritage and Historic Preservation) to approach and much to my surprise the permitting process was straight forward.
I parked about a mile short of the location and found some pottery and lithics right away. I continued along to the point of rocks nearest the river and found many nice petroglyph panels. The decorated area is fairly compact but I looked over a wider range and except for one nice flaked stone artifact (no pic due to camera glitch) I didn't see anything more. But, I'm glad my permit-pursuit worked out! |
