Not far from Sky Rock is the second and equally famous rock art panel, 13 Moons. This panel is vertical unlike it's famous neighbor, but tells an amazing story, I only wish I knew what that story was. I actually found 13 Moons relatively easily after locating Sky Rock. Since It's near ground level and visible from the ground, it wasn't nearly as difficult.
The panel includes thirteen filled circles, presumably representing the thirteen moons of the year. Additional figures interact with the 'moons', perhaps as a sort of calendar. Maybe the figures around the 'moons' represent gods or heroes and their epic feats. Again, we'll likely never know, but it's fun to wonder.
