General Information:
Snake in Mouth Pictograph Panel contains two large anthropomorphic (human) figures, with a large snake over the head of the first, and a small blue snake in the mouth of the second. It appears as if there was an interesting third figure present at one time but it has been naturally white washed over by time and the elements. The rock art is accessible year round in all weather conditions.

A GPS is useful in locating the rock art. Navigation for this route is moderate. Snake in Mouth is rated 2A I using the Canyon Rating System.

A tour involving Intestine Man, Snake in Mouth and the rock art panels in Sevenmile Canyon are usually combined into an impressive adventure requiring about half-a-day.

Trailhead Information:
This hike is located just outside of Moab. The trailhead is accessible to all vehicles, year round, via a paved highway.
