Lizard Trail Cub Creek Petroglyph Site

Our third stop at Dinosaur National Monument to see petroglyphs was to Site #14 the Lizard Trail along Cub Creek Road. This is a short 1/4 mile tup this rock formation to see the lizard and other petroglyphs.

Some of the petroglyphs were way up high like the small lizard up towards the left.
Other petroglyphs were more accessible.







We walked up and around to the east side of this rock formation all, and
saw this lovely view.

Another Petroglyph Site at Dinosaur National Monument is site #13 along Cub Creek Road called a Fremont Mystery. There were quite a few petroglyphs here along a short trail. Part of the trail was blocked off do to the hazard of falling rocks.
