The Head of Sinbad pictograph

This pictograph is along I70 at MM125, and 1.5 miles north in the middle of a tan wall of rock. You can't get there from there. You have to go to mm131 and go back west on the frontage road on the south side of the highway. That frontage road turns to dirt and veers south west to a sigh pointing to the Head of Sinbad. Turn right, go 1 mile, turn right again and find your self getting back near the expressway near MM125, When you get near the express way you will see a culvert crossing under. Head for the culvert and park there unless you have 4 wheel drive and want to drive in sand.


The pictograph area is behind a rail fence. The last section of the road leaves the track and goes across the flat grass area. The depression where the road is supposed to be is very eroded. Too much for a Subaru.


Section of the road to avoid. You could do it in a jeep, but why contribute to the erosion.


From where my car is parked the track through the grass leads directly to the pictograph.


 The internet says these are at least 3000 years old.
