Hero: Grassy Creek Petroglyphs
small-sr Icon

Located along the bank of the Price River, Grassy Creek Petroglyphs are a unique kind of rock art compared to what's typically found in the San Rafael Swell region. Differing from the colorful pictographs on the region's sandstone, these peckings have a creative circular theme throughout the site. Moccasin footprints, turtles, snakes, and other familiar shapes were chipped into the dark faces of numerous boulders on the hillside. The trail getting to the site used to connect to a trail across the Price River, which is now impassable, but you can drive over to the petroglyph site and back out to Cedar Bypass or continue your 4x4 adventure along Grassy Creek. The trail requires 4x4 high clearance and durable tires and is impassable in wet conditions. Please respect the artwork, take only pictures, leave only footprints, and no camping is at the Day Use Site.
