The Kyburz Petroglyph - carvings on these rocks date back approximately 2,000 years. This is just a few yards off the Henness Pass road.

My nephew and I drove the Henness Pass Road from Verdi, Nevada to Camptonville, California on Friday/Saturday of October 24/25, 2008. I met up with him in Stateline, Nevada after riding the Amtrak bus from Sacramento's Amtrak station to Stateline.

Lenny Taylor > The flash of my camera makes in difficult, but you can make out the many small hollows in this rock.
