Although Fremont occupation and rock art has long been rumored to exist in southwestern Wyoming , the only images so far published have not been particularly convincing. Recent OAS rock art research in the area has resulted in the identification and recording of sites that demonstrate, beyond a doubt, that there was a strong Fremont presence in southwestern Wyoming.
