I always wondered who was responsible for creating Carre-Shinob, then one day I found the answer. In dry fork canyon near Vernal Utah, is a wall of cliffs that run almost the whole length of the canyon on both sides. On these walls are numerous Indian petroglyphs, but along one small section of these cliffs is a type of petroglyph that is unlike anything else. It doesn't take much of an expert to figure out these are not your regular Indian writings.

These combinations of petroglyphs and pictographs, look more like Egyptian or Aztec writings. One can plainly see the earrings, necklaces, armbands and breastplates that this group of people wore. It's not hard to imagine and see that this group of people were skilled craftsmen in the art of working with metals (gold, silver, copper, etc.) There is no doubt in my mind after studying these petroglyphs that these are the people who owned, made, stored and hid Carre-Shinob.

Kerry Boren in his new book entitled "The Gold of Carre-Shinob" claims to have been in this Indian sacred mine. He tells the reader what he saw while he was in there. What he says he saw is exactly what I would have expected to see based on my judgements from the petroglyphs in Dry Fork.

If you have never seen them before you need to take a ride out there and see them some day. It's definitely worth the trip. Let me know what you think. Are the people who carved these petroglyphs the owners of Carre-Shinob?
