Beautiful, awesome, outstanding...............The visitor's center was nice and it was good to see a coffee and snack shack. There are some critters running around, but they're harmless. The overlook was secure and safe.

Drive out the scenic drive to the main overlook. It is well worth the side trip on the way to Canyonlands. Sparkling clean flush toilets and running water were a welcome site out there. The view from the nice visitor's center is also good. The the Pony Express Coffee Shack was very good. Fresh made wraps (get the spicy mustard),... More

What happened here is very sad. Walking the land and looking around you kind of just wonder how anyone could do such a thing. That aside, the view is absolutly breath taking. It is like an Island in the sky. You must try the the natural amphitheater effect. It is quite amazing. Just whisper across the bowl gorge from the... More

This is a great vantage point for folks who don't have four wheel drive vehicles. It gives you an overall view of a fantastic canyon.

We entered the park late in the afternoon and watched sunset from several vantage points along the rim trails. We thought the vistas rivaled those at Canyonlands National Park. Well worth the trip from Moab, ( about a 20 minute drive). Don't hesitate to go!

This was my favorite place in Moab. The story behind the naming is very moving. Views were incredible!

This was supposed to be an "if we have time" stop. I'm so glad we did. Also, unlike Canyonlands and Arches, they have flush toilets and running water.

After arches we thought nothing could take our breath away..but this one did. Amazing panoramas and a lot less crowded. This is on our list of places to return and spend more time in.

A nice drive out of Moab, I'm not sure how this place is NOT part of a National Park. Entrance fee tolerable. The Visitor's Center is nice, then out on the point is stunning.
