Lava tubes in Snow Canyon
Saint George, Utah
Description
Added by Jack Bradford
These Lava tubes are intriguing, exciting and gorgeous! They are in the heart of Dixie!
The Lava tubes at Snow Canyon Park are just outside of Ivins/St. George Utah. Drive up Snow Canyon and pay the $6 to the ranger fee. Follow the road up to the Lava Flow Whiterocks sign. The trail starts there and goes for about 1 mile there and back. There are two big lava tubes to see, one larger and one smaller. The larger tube is more of a hole in the ground, and it would be difficult to manuever in and out of the tube without good equipment. The smaller tube goes back into ground for only 20-30 ft. It makes for a nice scramble over big rocks in the dark. Mosquitos are pretty crazy down there. If you keep following the trail outside, you'll reach a lookout point that give a good view from inside the canyon.
