Southern Utah landscapes are notable because of the wonderful red rock. I noticed in the recovered shots from Moab that there was a variation in the rock faces you see within a relatively small area.

The first three shots in this set are from UT 279, a well known local Moab area road to see petroglyphs. I picked out shots that showed the distinctive varnish on the rock faces. Look close and you can still see a few petroglyphs.

The last two shots are from a hiking trail out of downtown Moab. The rock faces are there, but no particular sign of the impressive varnish.

Comments and suggestions are welcome.

Great shots, would have liked to have spent more time in Moab than I did in 2020. In #2, looks like a roadrunner chasing a coyote...

Mike, as usual, beautiful desert and badlands photos. I’m just returning from Antarctica so I haven’t kept up with postings for a few weeks. Nice to see your contributions continuing. jak

Those are beautiful walls, Mike. Love the varnish! I'm no geologist, but I wonder if the difference is in the roughness of the walls. The first few are very flat. The last ones are quite rough.

Mike, you are fortunate to live in a state that has so much variety in landscape. Moab is certainly one of those locations. Great job on your series!

You make me jealous when I see what's out your "backdoor," Mike. Keep it up.

Mike,
Really nice photos of a beautiful area to visit. I really like #2, I think the tree placement in you composition is perfect.

I am heading there in March to do some jeep trails. I hope to get some good photos of jeeps crawling over these red rocks.

Steve
