The beautiful and jaw-dropping Newspaper Rock National Historical Site, on the southern road into Canyonlands National Park in eastern Utah.

"Newspaper Rock is a petroglyph panel etched in sandstone that records approximately 2,000 years of early man's activities," a display sign reads. "Prehistoric peoples, probably from the Archaic, Basketmaker, Fremont and Pueblo cultures, etched on the rock from B.C. time to A.D. 1300. In historic times, Utah and Navajo tribesmen, as well as Anglos, left their contributions.

"There are no known methods of dating rock art. In interpreting the figures on the rock, scholars are undecided as to their meaning or have yet to decipher them. In Navajo, the rock is called Tse' Hane' (rock that tells a story)."
