Bones of the earth Revealed

Rocks, or bones of the Earth hide their stories in plain sight. Not all rocks tell stories, but if you know what to look for, you can find one in your backyard.

Quick tip: When you find a rock with a drawing or painting you can view it up to four different ways by turning the rock clockwise (or counterclockwise) starting at 12, then 3, 6, and 9. Also, view the drawing up close and then at a distance. You'll notice the drawing will look different and sometimes more brilliant. Lighting plays a key role. Some rock drawings appear better in full sunshine, others in varying shades of light.
