Ancient Shoshone Petroglyphs

During the Wind River Photographers’ Retreat, I got to do a lot of things that might only be available to someone in the know, or someone with connections. The most special was seeing these petroglyphs that few folks get to visit. I felt awed - I know we all did - as we made our way down the path in front of the rock face in which the petroglyphs had been carved hundreds of years ago. There were a lot of creatures that had characteristics of animals and humans, which experts speculate to mean that they were part of shaman activities. If so, then these were holy to the people of this area.
