Location/Geography: In east central Utah, Carbon and Duchesne Counties. Canyon country geologically favorable to natural gas and oil exploration.
Spotlight: A fascinating 40-mile stretch (64 km) of a 78-mile (126 km) backcountry byway, and therefore not just 9 miles (14 km) in length! World's longest rock art gallery and undoubtedly Utah's finest glyph site. The setting is also the absolute largest display of its kind anywhere in North America (regardless what other sites claim to the contrary).
Please note: Because there are so many excellent glyphs in this locale, there is no way to single out any particular image. Ergo, I think the best thing to do is to send the DKos community to this URL and scroll through Nine Mile Canyon's huge photo collection:
