That’s a good picture, but where is that? Crow canyon?

Hello all! I used my Google Pixel 4xl to take this picture and Lightroom to edit the colors. As for the history I copied this from Wiki:

"The petroglyphs were thought to be carved into the rock panels using stone, bone, wood or possibly even knives or sharp metal tools. Residues of paint that have been analyzed in the area indicate that the colors were made from local resources available such as minerals and plants. Hundreds of images representing animals, plants, corn, bow and arrows, spears, warriors, hunting scenes, supernatural beings, and representations of traditional Navajo art can be found on the 44 panels. A number of petroglyphs are believed to depict images of every day Navajo life, as well as images that are representative of the Navajo creation story and religious and spiritual ceremonies."

Have you seen the petroglyph of old kokopelli? He’s bent over, using a cane and holding his aching back. Absolutely hysterical. It’s near newspaper rock.
