Comments: Feature 23 is the stylized figure resembling Kokopelli (center) pecked and ground into bedrock (Surface 3). Also shown are Feature 21, the sipapu to the left of the figure, and Feature 24, the shallow, pecked basin to the right. The Kokopelli figure and Feature 24 are enhanced with powdered sugar. Significance of the inverted "V," also highlighted with sugar, is not recorded in the photo log; it may mark the presence of another bedrock modification not assigned a feature number.
