Fossil Falls

So, funny story, here. I've driven by Fossil Falls numerous times, but never explored the area. I did stop once, but only drove to the parking lot and looked around. This time I decided to stop and hike around - all with the intention of seeking out some of the scattered rock art (petroglyphs) hidden around the lava field.

 

Arriving at the parking lot, I got everything ready for the hike and fired up the GPSr. Nothing... Oh, it worked, but the file containing the coordinates failed to load. They were on the GPSr, but just wouldn't display on the map. And since I decided to leave my laptop at home, there was no way for me to fix the problem.

 

So, I decided to just wander around a bit, hoping I might stumble upon a glyph or two. I sort of remembered where they were on the map, but I had no luck at all. There must be a million boulders out there, as well as many ravines. So, other that having a somewhat pleasant time wandering around, I came home with just one photo from my stop at Fossil Falls.

 

I guess that's more of a sad story than a funny one. :-/
