A Rock Art Day
A rock art site, not far from Base Camp collapsed sometime over the weekend. Tom spent a day in Moab with BLM, the Museum, and the Rock Shop, trying to find somebody that would help him save what was left. Four folks from BLM and Tom spent the day on site. As it turns out, the BLM was not aware of the site and since Tom showed it to them, he was given the option of picking a name for the site. So Kobae, now has an archaelogical site named after him. It's amazing that the panel could have fallen that far, landed face up, and survived with so little damage.

It must have been meant to be saved and great that its named after Koabe, who is going to live as long as that art as been there.
Sweet! You got to name and you named it after Kobae. Will that be on a map or in a museum or something?

There is some sort of National Registry as I understand it Heather. If I find out, I'll let you know.
