Cataract Creek Petroglyphs
Cataract Creek Petroglyphs submitted by bog_being : Most of the art is included in this image. (Vote or comment on this photo)
Rock Art in Canada. Petroglyph paintings on a solitary boulder in the forest deep in the White Goat Wilderness. The Great Divide Trail passes by it, although much of the trail north and south of here is unmarked.

I remember reading a flyer from the White Goat Wilderness about it recommending contacting the Alberta Archeological Survey about the site for more info, but I couldn't find a copy of it online.
