The Indian Canyon Pictographs are located near Kanab, Utah in the Moquith Mountain Wilderness Study Area. Dating back to around 400 A.D., in an alcove high above a branch of Indian Canyon, are found scores of multi-colored, red, white, yellow, and black pictographs that depict the messages and beliefs of the Basketmaker Era people that once inhabited the canyon. A well built trail leads visitors over the cliffs to the alcove where a viewing platform provides close examination of the images.
