Petroglyphs

Within a few minutes of arriving at Nanaimo, we noticed a sign for an ancient site with petroglyphs. We almost missed the turn off from the main road, and we were the only visitors. The petroglyphs are mysterious, lightly carved in the rocks under a sanctuary of trees, and sadly spoiled by modern graffiti. A sign at the entrance explains the significance of the site and the main images depicted in the petroglyphs.
