Rock carvings at Eidefoss
The rock carvings at Eidefoss by the river Fossen in Nord-Fron municipality in Oppland county in Norway, comprise two images of moose. These are on a rock, possibly fallen from a west-facing, nearly vertical cliff, about 20 meters from the river. One measures 31 cm and the other 35 cm.
The location of the site is south of the white water where the river broadens to the east. During normal water level the rock is well away from the river.
