Cool stuff this.

Run by US Forest Service
They have all sorts of interpretations of the various figures, but one of the really great things about this site is there are a couple of rocks which cast shadows and the thinking is this was also an astronomical calendar used for planting...
The Ancestral Hopi who lived there believed the cracks in the cliff face were connections to another world which may be why the site is so studded with glyphs.

The two rocks near the top of the crack create the shadows for the calendar.
