Quitchupah

Quitchupah Creek runs through canyon country on the edge of the Colorado Plateau. Rock art along its banks preserves images associated with the Fremont culture, whose communities lived in the region before the later Paiute and Ute peoples. The canyon remains an important place for the Paiute. Its streams and rocky walls belong to a landscape of dry plateaus and steep valleys, where water and sheltered passages drew people through the country over many generations.
