Weekend Trip to Triassic; Berries, Boulders, and Petroglyphs

October 26th, 2008

Over the weekend a friend and I drove south to the Triassic bouldering area. This piles of rocks (big rocks) is just outside the city of Elmo, UT and is a developing bouldering area. I’m too fat to climb, so we just explored the area so my friend would know what to expect when he takes his scouts down in a few weeks. Here are a few pictures from the trip.

The following is a shot of the Land Of A Thousand Boulders area.  There are over 80 different routes among these boulders.

A close up of Juniper berries on the tree outside my tent.

One of a few petroglyph panels we saw.  This is one of the bigger panels.  I can’t speak to their authenticity, but they seemed more real than the “danny + sally” in a heart farther down the wall.

    Nice pictures. I especially like the closeup of the juniper berries. Glad you were able to get a little camping fix.

    Hey Rhett nice photos. Sounds like you had a great time. Juniper berries are deceptively soft in the picture.

    I wonder if grafitti will be considered petroglyphs a thousand years from now?
