The amazing Crane Panel
Crane Panel, perched in an isolated spot along Comb Ridge, is a striking panel. The panel isn't very near other panels or ruins, as far as I could find, and I think that isolation, as well as the simple design, make this a unique panel. I would love to know the story of the artist who drew this. Perhaps they simply liked cranes and wanted to draw one, or perhaps they had a successful hunt here or nearby and wanted to mark the success. Whatever their intent, the panel is incredible.
Note: Reaching the panel requires a bit of navigation. There are many social trails that come and go along the way to the panel. A GPS is strongly recommended to stay on course. On our trip, a group behind us ended up on a cliff above the panel instead of the panel!
Walking across slickrock. Heading to the left side of the dome in the distance.
