I don't have any idea.  But it looks like a great white shark with a black fin.

Gary,

It looks like a rudder of some kind, but that's as far as I can guess.

Thank you all for viewing and commenting.  We had some great comments.

Jim,  Great answer.  You definitely have a good imagination.

Marcia,  Another very creative idea.  But, I would hate to be in that airplane.

Charles,  Wow another very great idea.  it would be fun to sneak back and label it with you're comment as a sign.

Richard,  Another great guess.

Karen,  Even on the square column, it is a sundial, so you are correct.

Kevin,  You're right.

 

This is a sundial at Fort Bridger State Historic Site in Southwestern Wyoming.  I just attended the annual mountain man Rendezvous which is held the first weekend of September.  Fort Bridger was started by the mountain man Jim Bridger as a fur trading post in 1842 on Blacks Fork of the Green River.

I was really hoping it was the burial plot for the land shark... That shark really bugs me when he comes on behalf of UNICEF. But, he at least you know what time it is there.

Todd,  You must be a fan of "Saturday Night Live".  Anyway, I guess that land shark must still be out there "Trick-or-Treating".
