    FWIW - Pictures of ruins and rock art without at least a general description of where they are located is like posting a picture of your chick's vagina without showing her face...

    ....YMMV

    Who wants to see her face? And yes...milage will vary.

    While I despise the snobs that try to keep canyons "secret" or ridicule those that "spray beta" on such things...I see it differently with ruins and other ancient stuff. There is nothing more satisfying than exploring an area and finding a ruin or other artifacts that you didn't know were there. Except for the ones that are obvious or well know, I won't tell where they are, either.

    And I'll tell you why...theft and vandalism. I've seen it with my own eyes...the top of the water pocket fold near the southern end. The Anazasi and Navajo were thick up there, not so much with dwellings but hunting. Their camps can be found, the places they sat and made tools, rock art here and there, etc...

    When Steve Allan published his route book on the area around the mid nineties I witnessed the aftermath...dug up sites and whole areas of toolmaking being picked clean. While I think that what's lying on the surface is just a fraction of what's buried in the sand, it's still distressing to see and I feel sorry for those that will walk right thru an area that kept myself and friends occupied for two hours with our eyes pointed at the ground.

    Ruins have always fascinated me. I appreciate y'all posting these pictures. They have been a nice diversion to check in on occasion on a work day.
