Roughly 1000 years ago, the Anasazi indians inhabited the area that is now known as Canyonlands National Park. For the most part, they lived and spent their time around the Green River in the lower elevations below the mesa tops. To gather food, they would often make trips up to the higher elevations and store what they managed to find in granaries that they built into the edges of the cliffs and buttes. The granary above, was photographed in an alcove near the top of one of the Aztec Buttes in the "Island in the Sky" section of Canyonlands National Park.
