The High Ledge Ruins are tucked away in one of the many side canyons on the Butler Wash side of Comb Ridge west of Bluff, Utah. The ruins were built in a high, almost inaccessible, alcove. In another alcove down in the wash below the High Ledge Ruins is a smaller ruin with a predominate spiral petroglyph for which we are calling it the Spiral Ruin. On the south side of the canyon across from the Spiral Ruin is an alcove that is higher up that has some petroglyphs and other ruins. From the south alcove there are good views of the High Ledge Ruins.
