At milepost 10.1, turnoff on a dirt road to the west. There are signs pointing the way. Drive 0.15 miles and turn right onto another dirt road just before the well site. From there drive toward the low cliff face ahead of you, about 0.15 miles. You’ll find a wonderful park-like area surrounded by pinyons and junipers, with the prominent rock outcrop rising above. It’s a very pretty area. The GPS Coordinates are: 39 58.126N; 108 52.417W; at an elevation of 6,136 feet.

Here you’ll find several incised horses, with the brand of General Crook. There is also a Ute depiction of a white man, complete with a top hat, great coat, and drawn sword, and a really nice rendition of an arrow.
