Hello. Love that area. The gap was formed by the stream working its way through a fracture over time. The water established a path and slowly eroded down through the rock.
@searchingforhistory I guess it's amazing there are as many unvandalized sites as there are. Of course, people have been defacing places as long as there have been people!
@searchingforhistory I did a quick Google search and the photos I found are a lot more clear. I've seen dinosaur prints before and what you found certainly could be them, especially the bottom one. But it's not certain.
The tracks were up in the ridge. What you saw were ripple marks from an ancient lake shoreline. I did a video on the tracks there and can share here if you are ok with that? Also Hi Thora!

That explains it! It is a cool feature.
I love finding petroglyphs, too. It's sad that someone felt they had to add their own modern contribution.
Unfortunately, it seems to be a common occurrence. Think those were the dinosaur tracks I found?

That’s just petrified wood, split into 2 parts.
Oh? Interesting. Thanks for watching!
