Amazing Petroglyphs in Southern Nevada
This is among my first posts here, so I'm not quite sure about posting locations of off-the-radar sites like this one. I'm more than happy to share info about this or anywhere else I've been.
I'd also love to hear any interpretations of these petroglyphs, amateur or pro.
First, we encountered a long panel clearly depicting a celebration after a successful hunt. This photo shows most of the panel.
Dancing in celebration:
Dancers again and an archer shooting at animals:
An archer and many animals:
So, that was an amazing find, but a few minutes later things started to get WEIRD!
First, concentric circles on the ground. I wondered if this buried rock was once exposed.
Then, we had our minds blown:
Previous glyphs in perspective (look at the rock in the foreground):
And things got even weirder:

More circle designs and figures:

Great Find
Great find and nice photographs, the only thing missing is the Lat/Long info. Would be nice to photograph and document the location.

I don't use a GPS, so I don't have coordinates. If you want to find these, access the area above Arrow Canyon. These 'glyphs are not in the wilderness area, but you could probably throw a rock and hit the wilderness area from the 'glyphs. They aren't far from Arrow Canyon narrows.
