What Else Is Out There? - Ancient Southwestern Rock Art

- I always think about that.
What else is out there that I haven't seen?
So in the spirit of exploration I decided to make my way to remote land features that I thought might have rock art on them since I was heading out from a spot with a concentration of prehistoric rock art. I figured there was probably more to be seen. And I was right. So join me as I venture out in the Nevada desert and have a look!
Thanks For Watching!
Like The Video(s)? Hit That SUBSCRIBE!! Really Helps The Channel!!
Visitation to sites such as this should be done with the utmost respect. The artwork is not simply graffiti, it is a window into the past and it is culturally significant. Please take great care when visiting and observing these places.

Its a lot of work doing what you do for us. Driving, hiking, climbing and the editing. Great work taking us all to places most of us won't see in person.
Love your choice of music and great work, so enjoyable! Beautiful ancient petroglyphs! Thank you
You're welcome! Appreciate you watching!
These places are majestic and haunting at the same time. I wish the stones could speak.
Oh indeed, imagine the stories...
Awesome Panels, and amazing music choice. That first panel the drone flies over is breathtaking - I had to pause the video and just stare at it. Thanks for taking us there, I know it was no small effort.
You're very welcome, thank you for watching!
great find on the glyphs....and all the rock formations....thank you...
Absolutely! Appreciate you watching!
Wow the clarity of the upper panel😍
Yes, very impressive. It is in a very protected spot from sun/wind/rain so the elements haven't gotten to it like other panels.
At 21:00 looks like you found evidence of ladder use to get into higher cliff dwellings or caves. They carved it leading into a crack cave looking crevice! 😃
four toed footprints... also that one panel you flew the drone to is bizarre. its one of the stranger ones I've seen
It certainly deserves contemplation! Thanks for watching!
Another energizing adventure! I noticed quite a few figures that have a fat "H" enclosed at the base. For me that is something very different from rock art in other geographic locations; perhaps a "tell" of the local ancient inhabitants. The rock art really makes one think and wonder "who did this and why". For the most part, the animals a very distinguishable and represent all of the fauna that these people encountered. I will say this, these ancient inhabitants did not suffer from acrophobia. Love your dog, she has a great life!
No, they certainly did not fear heights! I could sit and stare at these panels for hours, very intriguing!
You have to wonder if the H symbols were the different ppl divided into groups kinda like we do now live close together a mailbox lol
Awesome ,great video and now I have a good idea of new tattoos..
Thanks, appreciate you watching!
You definitely know there's absolutely no way all the rock art out there's been catalogued! Such a beautifully vast area, and it's been a few years since I've been out that way, myself! Haven't quite made it to that particular spot yet, but it's been saved on my map for quite a while! Thanks for taking us all along on the journey, brother! 😎
I agree, think of what hasn't been seen in the Grand Canyon for example.
@@EnigmaClandestino seriously!!! I recently saw a video from another local guy out here that found some interesting ruins within the park. I’m figuring he probably accessed them from somewhere in the North Rim or the Parashant section. What a wild place we live in!!! 🤙
I also liked the music.
Great vid! Subscribed. I love this sort of stuff, and it seems to be blowing up on youtube lately too. Gonna go check out the rest of your vids now! Stay safe out there.
Appreciate it, thanks for watching!
Super! Thank you.
You're welcome, appreciate you watching!
Awesome. I love sw landscape. A couple years ago we, dad, son, and I, were able to drive to the grand canyon and through new Mexico and Colorado on the way. I had the most vivid dream in Taos. I've always been called to go there? Was there one night and felt a "download". Definitely some cool scenes and spiritual land. Going back soon. Thanks for taking us there.
You're very welcome, thank you for watching!
Great video. New subscriber here. Keep up the great work. Great choice in vehicle as well. I love my Yotas!!! Anyway thanks for Sharing, looking forward to seeing the next adventure.
You're very welcome, thanks for watching!
So presice in the drawings. Sheep, Rams, Elk, birds and foot or hoof prints, hands, a hunter drawing its bow and arrow on a ram, a cowboy on a horse. All quite accurate . So when I see the ones that resemble Aliens it makes believe even more of other life forms. And the spirals?? What does that mean? They have been carved in rocks all over the world, along with the Alien looking creatures.
interesting video, thanks for posting Peace
Another interesting venture, thanks. There are so many great animal figures out there, you have a special one here. At 6:50 there's a deer with a massive rack, much larger than the usual animal figure. Seems like the artist was showing that they had seen a real trophy.
You're welcome! Very intriguing concentration of petroglyphs! Appreciate you watching!
I was there in the 90s with the Utah Rock Art Research Association and a couple of friends from Las Vegas. Some said the H-shape symbols were purses/bags, but who knows. Much of the iconography was affiliated with the Southern Paiute.
Yes, who really knows. It would be interesting to hear what the Paiute would have to say, either the ShivWit or Moapa may be able to shed some light.
Nice vid! That cross like glyph early in the video, I have seen this same one in northern and central Arizona. Almost exact as this one.
Very cool!
The H shapes remind me of the H stones at Puma Punku, Peru.
I'm into this and I watch it on a whole bunch of different channels . All those lines along the wall most likely are for sharpening Spears or arrowheads make sense if you say they were making them they're right
Great video of the art There are Native Americans who can translate many of the images. I'd like to know what the capsules were about.
These are very very nice..
Cool stuff! Ever run across any Chuckwallas or Gila Monster's???
Oh ya. Always have to be aware of the Gilas since my dog is usually with me. Dang Gila will clamp down on the dog and not let go! Don't run into them very often though, mainly rattlesnakes which is why I prefer the winter in the desert.
Fabulous ..do you take lots of stills ..be awesome to really sit and study them .
I have and it's interesting because studying the stills of dense concentrations of petroglyphs reveal that images were carved on top of other images sometimes. Same with paintings. This perhaps show that beliefs changed and different cultures moved through the same areas.
@@EnigmaClandestino very interesting ..
شكرا لك على هذا العمل الشيق والممتع .
في الحقيقة متفاجئ من هذه الرسوم التي صورتها في بلادكم لأنه يوجد في الأراضي الجزيرة العربية والتي تعرف بالسعودية مثل هذه الرسوم بكثرة جداً ويقال عنها الحضارة الثمودية ... وهي مشاهد تصويرية ولكن يوجد لها نطق باللغة كاللغة الفرعونية ....إن كنت في شغف لمعرفة ما لديك عليك الأطلاع على الحضارة الثمودية ..
وأعتقد أن هذه الرسوم تدل على النظام الالأجتماعي في تلك الحقبة وبالطبع سترمز الى بيوتهم ومدافنهم وممتلكاتهم كما هو الحال في الجزيرة العربية ..
شكرا لك مرة ثانية على هذا الفيدو
Thank you very much for watching! I had never heard of the Thamudic Civilization, fascinating!
Would love to see the tops if you return. Some of those are the oldest I’ve seen in videos
For sure! Thanks for watching!
At 22:54 a heart ❤
You only seen a fraction. You weren't looking
You can look every day for a hundred years and you still will not see it all.
Just found this vid in my feed and had to click play so I can see those H shapes a little closer! I’ve been to Puna Punku and am mystified by the H’s. Can they be connected??
Why not. It's not out of the realm of possibility that influence from South America reached as far North as present day Southern Nevada. Macaw feathers were found in caves in Utah. If goods were trading, proselytizing of some degree most certainly was as well.
I think we have UFO’s in some of the art
3:40 THATS sQUATTER MAN!
Have you ever thought (if you have the means or the contacts) to ask today's Native Americans what the art you see means? Or would the meanings not even be known to their current generations and they'd be guessing as much as any of us do? Pardon the ignorance but I'm an Aussie and don't know the ins and outs and depth of the knowledge/awareness of such art over there (I would assume it's generally the stuff of mystery though).
Anybody know what the Spiral means???
6:28 another decapitation
Looks like prime snake country do you or your dog run into rattlers
Sure do which is why I predominantly do this in the winter and the dog is snake trained plus vaccinated for rattlesnake.
Gee I wonder why the rock art looks like brand new?also why the alien figures are so much more detailed. Almost as if they are recent and made with modern tools. Hmm .
