Sand Island Petroglyphs in Utah

The Sand Island Petroglyphs are a short drive south of Bluff, Utah on highway 191. The large rock panel, some 100 yards long, contains petroglyphs, or rock carvings, from a period of about 2,500 years to the “great pueblo” period, 800 years ago. This site and Newspaper Rock on highway 211 towards Canyonlands National Park, are two very large and easily accessible petroglyph panels.
