Park contains the famous petroglyph Tsagaglalal, or "She Who Watches." This
is one of the many petroglyphs and pictographs found in the eastern Columbia
River Gorge area. The gorge has been occupied by native cultures for at least
15,000 years. Advanced arrangements need to be made with the local park authorities,
as the trail leading to Tsagaglala has been closed to protect this treasure
from vandalism.
