Kane Creek is nestled between 600 foot cliffs and the Colorado river, right outside Moab, Utah. We stopped to check out the petroglyphs and take a short stroll near the campground. When you're in Moab, it seems like the red rock scenery never ends. There's always a new spot to check out and explore. Heck, I have no idea how many posts I've published on Moab alone. However, the end is near.
Only one more to go.
This desert varnish petroglyph site is photographed quite often. You'll see it in magazines and on T.V. (Especially if you watch Ancient Aliens like me!)
Here, I edited the photo so you can make out the ancient rock art.
Another trail near Kane Creek.
It's fun to see the super sized ears on Mule Deer.
Their butts are normal size.
Do you see the arch at the top of the ridge?
Stay tuned for the end of Moab...

Do you think that's a spaceship in that petroglyph? I've never watched Ancient Aliens but I like the idea of aliens making rock graffiti :)
Moab is a cool place to explore. I must go back to see more of it someday soon
Moab is indeed beautiful. That second picture is truly breathtaking. I love your photography so much, Sharon. I can never get too much of it. :-)
My kind of adventure. I really should start planning for visiting Colorado, so many beautiful places to see.
Worth a Thousand words
Looks great - vast, I guess.
I have always found that petroglyphs are astonishing works of tribal cultures!
What a fascinating place.
Beautiful shots of the area, I love that you got some of the wildlife also.
Fabulous shots.
Love the edited ancient rock art and that lovely Deer. Magnificent rock formations
fabulous place.
The red rock makes for some great photos. Thanks for editing the rock art.
Fabulous place Sharon. Great shots too. Enjoyed seeing the rock art, they always instil a feeling of awe. The Mule Deer is lovely :D)
What a wonderful place! Thank you for sharing these photos.
I would love to see these scenes in real life!
beautiful series of photos.

What a fantastic part of the world! I love all the crags and layers and colors. Thank you for linking up to My Corner of the World!
The petroglyphs in that area are so amazing, as are the rock formations!! We get a little squiggle on a rock in Joshua Tree and everyone gets excited! Have a great weekend.
Gorgeous
Very nice pictures - when I see pictures from these parts of the world I am reminded of Central Australia.
Very similar colours in the rocks.

We loved Moab! And Arches and Canyonlands and all surrounding.... wish we could go back again...definitely a contrast to Florida isn’t it?
