“Calf Creek Pictographs”
Grand Staircase / Escalante National Monument

While hiking down the trail along Calf Creek Canyon toward the falls, people can view a magnificent wall on the northeast side of the creek. Toward the bottom of the wall, if one looks close enough, you can spot a nice example of pictographs in the typical Fremont style of rock art.
