I saw some pictures of petroglyphs on the Dixie Archaeological Society site. Does anyone know the location of petroglyphs in the Gorge?

I know where two of the panels are. The main one is pretty amazing. They are both near the Utah side. Pm me and I'll tell you roughly where they are.

I found them while putting in a new climbing route near the top. I hear there are tons more too.

It's been a lot of years ago but I'm pretty certain that we viewed a few petroglyphs on the north side of I-15 just after crossing the bridge over the Virgin River headed southbound from SG. At that time there wasn't much for parking and I believe we crossed the bridge and maybe 1/4 mile further south pulled over to the side of the freeway then hiked back along the shoulder toward the river for a minute before heading to some boulders maybe 100 yards off the freeway?
