V-Bar-V Heritage Site, Rimrock

This out-of-the-way attraction is an incredible look into the past. Just $5 per car, you're a half mile walk away from 800+ year old petroglyphs. Pay attention to the hours, as this attraction does close fairly early in the day. A very knowledgeable tour guide is waiting at the petroglyphs to explain their history and meaning.

We went for the winter solstice event. To stand in front of that cliff with all the petroglyphs and see the sun play out its movement across that ancient surface was amazing. The commentary explaining what was happening was very informative. A terrific place to visit

Easy hike to incredibly preserved petroglyphs over 13 rock panels, the largest collection in the area. Knowledgeable park service staff spoke about the ancient tribes, the meanings of the carvings, and the current tribal issues. Don't forget to check out the visitor center for detailed maps to other locations.

Great place, glad I had the opportunity to visit.
