Potash Road Petroglyphs & Dinosaur Tracks

Potash Road

A band of rock art and dinosaur footprint sites along State Route 279 (Potash Road) west of Moab. Viewing is free, and you can simply stop by the roadside.

State Route 279 (Potash Road) runs along the western bank of the Colorado River. Along the cliff face you can see figures and animals in rock art left by the Ancestral Puebloan and Fremont cultures, and roadside signs explain them. Farther on is a dinosaur footprint viewing point, where binoculars let you see the footprints of Jurassic theropods on the cliff. The same road also leads to Corona Arch and a climbing wall.
