Gullickson – Fish

Petroglyph - fish Petroglyph of a fish (possibly a catfish) from Gullickson’s Glen, a small overhanging rock shelter in the Driftless Area of southwestern Wisconsin.  Petroglyphs (carvings) at the site occur at the center of the shelter and on either edge.  The central panel (the location of the fish petroglyph) contains the most petroglyphs, but they are difficult to see because of moss and lichen growth.
