  • The pictographs at Seminole Canyon are around 4,000 years and are very well preserved. Join me as I take a tour to view them up close.

    I have been all over my state. I still love pulling the RV to state parks and spending a week or long weekend. We always setup to meet friends at these places and enjoy them together.

    I was here a few months ago and was absolutely awe-struck by the pictographs. I desperately wish I had a time machine, because I have so many questions for those folks.
    While I'm here I also wanted to mention how much I love your videos. Your narration has a magical quality to it, and seeing Texas through your eyes helps me appreciate my own journeys in this beautiful state. Thank you for all of this great content.

    It staggers me to think of all there is to see...Everywhere...It's so easy to fly by on a highway and have no idea of what is out there geographically or historically just a short distance away...I'm an old time who has had plenty of travel in my days, I never dreamed I'd get to see so much more in my old age with something called CZcams and Google Earth...Thank you for your videos.

    2.000 years??? Rome was building glorious monuments at that time?! Those shell fossils show that it was under the sea at some time, just like the heart of texas ranch we had that was peppered with sea shells. I remember going over the bridge of the Pecos in that area in the mid 50's and seeing those south facing overhangs to the East, and something in me really clicked in...I suppose I had lived there in another life even at that young age, and then I discovered the the town of Peyote Ville was not too far away...life is a mystery.

      Texas has been shaped in many ways by the receding sea of pre historic times. One reason it has some of the best caves in North America.

    Petroglyphs in western Nevada have been identified as the oldest of their kind in North America. Researchers at the University of Colorado Boulder conducted a study that dates the rock carvings to between 10,500 and 14,800 years ago. The set of petroglyphs are carved deep into a wall of rocks at Winnemucca Lake. Also you can't tell me American Indians was in Texas no later 12,000 years ago when foot prints were found in New Mexico that are 23,000 years old. So you would think American Indians would be in Texas around that time.

      Probably, there has been evidence of people found in parts of Texas older than that at the Gault site (~20,000 yrs old)
