Whoβs got the gossip?Β This rock does!Β The Newspaper Rock, a notepad nearly 2,000 years in the making and 200 feet tall along a cliff in the Indian Creek Canyon, tells countless stories.Β As one of the busiest slabs of ancient communication, the Newspaper Rock State Historical Monument is officially part of Indian Creek unit of the Bears Ear National Monument.Β A sacred place for The Navajo, The Ute,, and The Hopi Tribe, Newspaper Rock contains over 650 petroglyphs.
Apparently European settlers also added their two cents… and some horrible vandals too!
