During the summer of 2013, I worked as a curatorial intern at the Sweetwater County Historical Museum. While at the museum, one of my projects was to create a mount for a broken petroglyph. The petroglyph came from a BLM site, where it had fallen off the rock-face after being accidentally bumped into by a visitor. The rock that composed the pieces of the petroglyph is fragile sandstone, which had been treated by the BLM. Below are some pictures from when I and the other intern, Tessa Moeing, pieced the petroglyph back together and mounted it into a case for display.
