Overview

The Ash Springs Petroglyph Site is an area of lightly desert-varnished boulders on a low hill overlooking the verdant Pahranagat Valley. Ancient people apparently liked the view, as they used the site as a winter camp. While there, they flaked stones, broke ceramic vessels, and etched the rocks with scenes of bighorn sheep, human figures, and intricate designs of all sorts.

Listed here are details of Site 12. This site consists of one boulder with petroglyphs on the south and west faces. There is also some graffiti -- don't be that guy! These sites are protected by American Law, and for all time, visitors will curse the memory of "AR" for messing up the rock stories.
