SEGO CANYON
A nice surprise on our way to Colorado
We found some wonderful petroglyphs on this panel.
Just around the corner was this panel of pictographs.
Close to St George we have a pictograph called Red Man which is one of these life size pictographs on a rock wall which is hard to hike to. Here we saw perhaps 20 of these figures on just this one panel
3 snakes, horned figures - very interesting!
This was much easier to get to than Red Man!
(and there are such interesting rock formations all around here).
Sego was a coal mining town in 1910, somewhat flourished until 1947 but always had to deal with a lack of water. When I-70 was finished the town was too.
This admin building was surprisingly large.
Remnants of the railroad spur which was built to haul coal to Thompson Springs.
Oscar loves exploring the various remains with us.
This house was amazing in its day.
Too bad for the graffiti.
Gentle reminders of visiting 'rules'
Sad reminders when a baby dies the day it is born (99 years ago)
More interesting rock formations!
A fun visit to Sego Ghost Town
