| Petroglyphs various locations |
The earliest inhabitants of the Wind River Valley left behind signs of their presence in the form of stone tools, wood structures, tipi rings, and rock art. Historians believe rock art was used to record events, mark important places, worship, or simply as a form of creative expression. Although no one knows the exact significance of the images left behind in Wind River Country, their mystery and beauty is alluring and there are several locations in the Torrey and Dinwoody basin's visitors can explore. |
