Camp at Muley Point
Muley Point on the southern end of the Cedar Mesa is one of the finest camping (and car camping) sites in North America, towering some 2400' above the San Juan River Canyon (and The Goosenecks State Park) looking south directly into the northern mouth of Monument Valley. It is a breathtakingly beautiful place and easily missed.
To get there from the South, take Highway 163 north from Mexican Ha...

There is a trail along the canyon rim that will allow you to explore multiple angles and find just...
Backpack Great Gulch: Kane Gulch to Bullet Canyon
One of the many wonderful hidden gems in Utah (so just tell you close friends about it).Kane Gulch is located four miles south of the Highway 95/Highway 261 junction. At the Kane Gulch ranger station you will be able to use restrooms, overnight park your vehicle, pick up permits, and purchase area maps. Even though this area sees much less traffic than Zion and Arches, it is highly recommended ...
