Snake Gulch Rock Art


Snake Gulch is located in the Kaibab National Forest in Arizona. It's a wide, gently sloping canyon bottom that was once a major route for Indians who moved back and forth between the plateau above Kaibab Creek on the north rim of the Grand Canyon and the south rim's Havasu Canyon. Over the many centuries of their travels, the Indians have embellished the sandstone cliffs with a variety of striking polychrome pictographs. The time period represented here is from the Late Archaic through Basketmaker and Pueblo eras and includes Southern Paiute , who continue to live in the area.
