26 Oct Lake Lahontan Petroglyphs
Click the red hotspots to navigate through the five different VR panoramas. The white calcium carbonate deposits partially coating some of the rocks is evidence that the level of prehistoric Lake Lahontan was once high above the location of the petroglyphs. Tufa deposits result from precipitation of calcium-bearing spring water in an alkaline lake rich in carbonates.
