Register Cliff

Guernsey WY

This is along the Oregon trail. Man stopped there to add there names as they headed west. Many more have joined in recent years. This one grabbed my eye as it was done in 1889 by a wagonmaster named Tex and the area engraved almost looks like the state of Texas.

Normally this would be called defacing graffiti but in this case it is in my mind art .You showcased it with b/w which was the perfect treatment to give it added punch! V

Nice find. I also think this looks like a 3-D map. Very cool.

Wouldn't I like to know some of the history of these names. Thanks for sharing, Sandy!

There must be an interesting story behind each of these names. Great find and nicely captured, the details are very sharp! V

I'm not a big fan of this kind of carving, but I must say this is fascinating. Great details and tones.
