This is Newspaper Rock, a rock covered with Indian pictographs. The rock is near the entrance to the Needles District of Canyonlands National Park in Utah.

These Indian pictographs or petroglyphs in Saguaro National Park are accessible from the Golden Gate Road. There is a short hike from the parking area at Signal Hill to the rocks on which they are found.

These petroglyphs are in the Ruincon Mountains area of Saguaro National Park at Signal Hill along the Golden Gate Road.

Photographed near the Rio Grande in the Hot Springs area of Big Bend these Indian pictographs are easily accessible though some of them have been damaged. What they represent I have no idea.

One of the places we stopped on our way to Spokane, was at Beebe Springs Natural Area along the Columbia River. This an area where native tribes once dug Camas bulbs (shown below). There are sculptures there by the native artist, Smoker Marchand, this of an Indian on horseback and others of women digging Camas bulbs.

This photo shows the tiny fruit and the next photo the flowers of this shrubby tree found growing along creeks and in the understory. Birds, rodents, deer, bear, foxes and coyotes all relish the small, bittersweet fruits. The shrubs are either male or female, so both are needed for pollination. The flowers are an early nectar source for bees and other insects. Native Americans in the Pacific Northwest ate the fruit. For medicinal purposes they chewed on the twigs and then applied them to sores. For a tonic and purgative, some used the bark to make a bark tea.

These petroglyphs are preserved at the Ginko Petrified Forest State Park interpretative center in Vantage, Washington. They were among the few that were rescued in 1963 when the Wanapum Dam was completed and thousands of these petroglyphs were drowned by the rising waters behind the dam.
