We decided to get away from Zion on our second day and check out some of the less touristy things in the area. We really got lucky with these 2 picks.<\/p>\n

1) First up we drove a few miles into the desert on a little dirt road\/trail and crossed the Arizona border to the “Little Black Mountain Petroglyph Site.” There was not a single person around and we hiked all over looking at 8000-year-old petroglyphs on the rock walls. You can just walk right up and touch them (don’t worry, we didn’t actually touch them).\u00a0\"\"\ud83d\ude42<\/span><\/span>\u00a0AMAZING!<\/span><\/p>\n

2) Next was a 10-mile drive into the desert in another direction to see the “Warner Valley Dinosaur Tracks.”. It’s just a spot in the desert with nobody around where almost 400 fossilized dinosaur tracks were found. We walked all over the area exploring, and the scenery was beautiful. No park system, no rangers, no tourists. We had a blast!<\/p>\n
