Good stuff Shane, that last, "many feet" panel is cool.

Thanks... We're having the "Many Feet" and "Kiva Ladder" pictures blown up to 20"'x30" to hang in the house, provided we like the way the large prints turn out.

Is that a peace sign in the 'many feet' panel?

By the way, after taking 3 trips down to Cedar Mesa last year, I haven't made it down there yet this Fall. Such an amazing place.

I'm not sure what the "circle with cross" is all about. There were a bunch of similar circles with crosses surrounded by feet in the same area. below is anther one. We also found circles with stars in the center in the same area.

FWIW: I'll be adding some of these routes to Climb-Utah.com (http://Climb-Utah.com) when I get time to write them up. We had orginally planned to hit The Needles area of Canyonlands on this trip but ended up in Cedar Mesa. Current plans are to get back down to The Needle's next month.... so many places to see.... so little time....
