This weekend there will be two events that I find very interesting. Both relate to Native American culture. Here are details:
UVU Native Sons Pow Wow
The Native Sun Club will be sponsoring the 2012 Utah Valley University Pow Wow in the
Grande Ballroom November 2nd & 3rd. Everyone is welcome to attend
and enjoy two days of culturally enlightening festivities and fun! There
will also be food vendors from our various Multicultural clubs, so come
and support them as well.
More details.
Navajo Rug Show & Sale At Deer Valley
The
23rd annual Navajo Rug Show and Sale will take place at Deer Valley
Resort's Snow Park Lodge, November 2 - 4, 2012. This special event
provides attendees the opportunity to experience Navajo culture through
demonstrations of weaving, singing and other traditions; and to help
support Navajo elders by purchasing their hand-woven rugs and
hand-crafted jewelry.
More details.
I'd love to attend both. Have to see how much time I can spare - work is incredibly busy right now.

Hiking In Snow Cnayon
| Rock art in Snow Canyon |
The weather was perfect for hiking. Cool in the morning but warm in the afternoon. So warm we quickly shed jackets and hiked in shirt sleeves.
I've made it a hobby to find and photograph Native American rock art around Utah and I'm getting quite a collection. I've found 3 panels of nice figures in Snow Canyon and today I talked to a hiker who told me about more figures. We were hiking the Gila Trail to a group of figures in a narrow slot when we talked to a hiker who pointed out a prominent rock that has many rock art figures, and the guy said there are more in that area.
We didn't have time to find them on this trip, but I will definitely get back there soon and find the new figures. It's always good to have an excuse for another trip.
