Route

Along Potash Road to the west of Moab, UT are several rock art sites.

Some of the sites have signs pointing them out. The first site is located at 38?33'9.06"N, 109?35'41.99"W. The petroglyphs are located on the cliffs to the north of the road. The lighter rock at the bottom used to be underground before the road was constructed.

The second panel is located at 38?32'39.93"N, 109?36'1.23"W. This petroglyph panel features a large animal that looks like a bear and several smaller bighorn sheep and other animals. And lots of gringoglyphs. The only part of this wall that appears to be older than a hundred years is a sheep
