Dripping Springs and the Petroglyph, Day One

 A summer or two ago Moab Tour Company, couple of their people showed up and said one of their customers got stuck, high centered or crashed one of their side by side. He wasn't coherent and walked out to the road and caught a ride with somebody to town. Told them he didn't know where the side by side was but here's a picture of a petroglyph that was close by. They show it to me and ask where it is. I don't know. I've never seen that one before. They describe all the places they've been and really all that's left is Dripping Springs but despite all the springs back there I've never seen any sign of Indian stuff. A few days later they come out to get another vehicle that's out here having an issue, they have like 100 of the, and say they found the missing one in Dripping Springs.


I know all the hard places on that trail so I'll go to each of them and then do a grid search around the places he might have crashed or got high centered. We spent all of Wednesday there with no luck.


We're spreading out the search as we got nothing by the road. Then a brutal cold wind comes up and we're gone and headed back for the day.
