Overview

The rock formations are unlike anything I've seen elsewhere, and the hike through the slot canyon and up to the top was varied and beautiful. I am very glad we visited at the end of October with hardly any other people so we could enjoy the amazing beauty. It would be a totally different experience during busy season, with up to a 90 minute wait just to drive in and park. Definitely best off-season, but really loved this place!

    This was probably the most unique geography I’ve ever seen. Fantastic experience.

    This was a nice 2 hour hike up to the top and back. There are a couple of spots that you will need to climb up or climb down a couple of steps
