Native peoples heavily used the western edge of the San Rafael Swell. There are many rock art sites hidden amongst the canyons, boulders, and washes on this desolate-looking transition zone from the desert to the mountains farther west. Red Hole Draw is one such site in this sea of rolling sagebrush.

The journey to Red Hole Draw requires a high-clearance vehicle, though I would recommend a true 4-wheel drive. An endless plain of wash crossing on a rough 2-track separates the main from Red Hole. Once at Red Hole, a short hike reveals several fantastic pictograph sites, including Funks Cave. There are some petroglyphs as well, though the pictographs were the highlight to me.
