Log Text: Fascinating piece of uninterpreted history. I think the heart-shaped group of dots on the (no longer available) interpretation diagram are probably a piece of modern graffiti. I don't recall seeing them when I visited the site, so many years ago.
I think the site may benefit from some professional archeological digging at of the base of the main boulder. It seems likely there may be other cup marks or art work currently covered by accumulated soil, etc.
