Log Text: A mixed modern and ancient petroglyph site about 2.3 miles east of Bluff UT accessible from Route 162.
There is a parking pulloff at 37.282579,-109.505201 and an 800 ft dirt road leads north from there. Suitable for SUVs or lower clearance vehicles (with care). Follow the dirt road north and stay right at the first fork. The road ends in a small turnaround circle. Park here. The rock art is mostly to the left and just a short walk to the cliff face.
You can also park at Route 162 and hike in.
Géants de Kerzerho

Géants de Kerzerho submitted by Jimwithnoname on 26th Sep 2010. Site in Bretagne:Morbihan (56) France
(View photo, vote or add a comment)
Log Text: The Kerzerho Geants are located about 200 m north of the northernmost alignment row along a signposted easy footpath through a tunnel-like hedgerow. There are actually three separated groups of menhirs. The southernmost group is composed of somewhat shorter stones. The central group farther north represents the true giants, both upright and recumbent. The northernmost group comprises a mix of sizes and orientations and includes one very large upright stone where the path ends at a T junction.
This entire ensemble is oriented roughly north-south, 90 degrees offset from the east-west axis of the main Kerzerho alignments.

Log Text: An impressive menhir and one of the bigger ones in the Carnac area. However, the ground trampling and erosion is considerable due to foot traffic, and for that reason I deducted points for Ambience. Like the Quadrilatere 50 m away, this stone is surrounded by both a stone wall and low rope fence, both of which are apparently ignored by many despite some signs discouraging a closer approach in the interests of preservation.
I kept my distance and took a few photos. Perhaps I've been overly sensitized by the reality of certain vandalized and abused prehistoric sites in the U.S. and don't want to see a similar outcome here :-)
For parking and trail access, see my Visitor Log entry for the Quadrilatere de Manio.

Log Text: This is probably the most famous and best preserved decorated Neolithic passage grave in Europe. Not much to add regarding visit details that others have not already mentioned. The site is only accessible via boat and a guided tour. Boats leave regularly during the summer and early fall months from various port around the Gulf. I happened to embark from Larmor Baden and there is a large free parking lot next to the ticket office. The boat ride to the island is about 15 minutes. From the dock on the island, it's a brief climb up the hill to a small visitors center where a less brief lecture is given by the guide, primarily in French, although I was able to ask a few questions in English. From there, the small group walked around the cairn and was allowed 5-10 minutes to view the passage and chamber. Photography is allowed, but be prepared to work fast !

Frogmore Mound
Date Added: 5th Mar 2025
Site Type: Artificial Mound
Country: United States (The South)
Visited: Yes on 1st Feb 2025. My rating: Condition 3 Ambience 4 Access 5
Frogmore Mound submitted by Andy B on 1st Nov 2019. Frogmore Mound (Frogmore, Louisiana) Frogmore, Louisiana is located between Ferriday and Jonesville in western Concordia Parish. It is noteworthy as the site of a series of ancient Native American earthworks (dating to 700-1200 AD) and the Frogmore Plantation, which dates to 1843. Both sites, along with the nearby historic Piazza Cotton Gin, are listed on the National Register of Historic Places.

Log Text: Like DePrato, Frogmore is on private property fronting Route 84, but in this case there is a convenient side street (Frogmore Plantation Rd) with a reasonable shoulder leading to a residential subdivision. I was able to pull slightly off the side street and park 100 ft from the mound.

Accessable to the public
This is the stone ring listed on their website at this Lat/Long

Log Text: Thurston St lot the best for access. A bit of a long hike on the first side trail heading east off of Megley Trail, but one plus is that the same trail brings you right by several other sites. Last bit is a 200-300 ft bushwhack into woods and the enclosure is not easily spotted from a distance.

Foxborough Standing Stone (4) submitted by stonetracker on 19th Jan 2023. This is the triangular rock on the left side of the photo. My opinion is that this is natural, either a glacial artifact or a broken off piece of stone due to frost fracture or weathering.

Log Text: This is 500 ft or so east of Megley Trail near a side trail. Been a while but I recall this being a bushwhack to some extent. Long walk from any of the parking lots.

Foxborough Standing Stone (5 submitted by stonetracker on 21st Jan 2023. Site Q on published map. This standing stone was originally twice as tall but the top half broke off sometime between 2003 and 2017. The broken half is lying on the ground in the foreground. The buttress stones are still there. Clearly manmade.

Log Text: An update on access. This site is accessed from a trail north from Megley, opposite the Dolmen site trailhead. Climb up trail 100 yds or so onto open ledges. Just after the ledges, turn right and bushwhack into the woods about 75 ft. Site is very difficult to spot from trail as it is surrounded by trees; GPS is helpful.

Log Text: Site is 500-1000 ft north of Megley Trail on a side trail. As I recall it is sitting on a flat stone ledge just above the trail but that needs to be verified. Thurston St lot is best for parking and access.
