When we realized we were near Nine Mile Canyon we decided we had to check it out! Nine Mile Canyon is known for it's extensive rock art and has been nicknamed, "The World's Longest Art Gallery." Despite the name "9 mile," this canyon is actually a 40 mile long road that winds through ranches and old settlements that date back as far as the 1880's.
Lost Trail
Recently we headed to one of our favorite spots in Utah in search of some Indian Rock Art that we have vaguely heard about, but never seen. We love to look for the lesser known sites and knew it would be a challenge to try and find them, so we were excited to venture out together. Knowing we had a hefty hike in front of us we got as close as we could in the truck and then took off on foot the rest of the way (with lots of snacks) in search of this place.
Pictographs & Petroglyphs
I couldn’t help but think of the history of these prehistoric people who left this art on massive rock walls and what message they were trying to leave behind for others to see.
