White Mountain Petroglyphs, Rock Springs, Wyoming
Can you see ancient petroglyphs in Wyoming? At a remote site north of Rock Springs, you can drive out and see rock carvings that are 100's if not 1000's of years old. The petroglyphs at White Mountain are a bit of a drive but are worth it if you’re into ancient artwork. Depending on the time of year, it may be impossible to access the location due to snow or muddy roads. There are baby animals depicted as well as women in the carvings. It’s well worth a look.

White Mt. Petroglyphs - WY Cultural Geology
Evidence of native people, who inhabited the Green River Basin about 1,000 to 1,500 years ago, can be seen in the soft sandstone of the Wasatch Formation. The White Mountain Petroglyph site, near Rock Springs, Wyoming, contains rock art depicting hundreds of animals and people. From bison and bear, to horses and warriors. These petroglyphys have a deep cultural and spiritual significance to the early peoples who created them. This rock art serves as a museum on the sandstone cliff, and for us to appreciate our past cultures and how people used the natural landscape to depict their cultural beliefs and inspirations.

Wyoming Petroglyphs
This site is called the White Mountain Petroglyphs. Located in SW Wyoming, in the deserts of Sweetwater County. Some of these images date back 1000 years, when the Plains and Great Basin Indians hunted buffalo and elk, in this area. One of the caves still has soot from torches, covering the ceiling. Just past that cave, notice the carving of the Indian, in full head dress, running on a horse! The audio is mostly non-existent..unless you like the WIND! This Petroglyph feature is on federal land (BLM), which is why the fence protects it. Otherwise, your in the middle of nowhere.

Exploring Wyoming - White Mountain Indian Petroglyph Hand Formations
These petroglyphs are at White Mountain just north east of Rock Springs Wyoming. Very well preserved, it's a neat walk back in time! These particular indentations in the rock are handprints from Indians. I understand that they use to bring the women who were in labor here to birth their babies. These were the hand holds on the rock when they were giving birth.
