Trail Reviews
The trail is really beautiful. Unfortunately there is no shade. The wash is not as big and impressive as the one in Canyonlands NP, but the colors and rock formations are extraordinary. Walk it clockwise. The signage in the other direction is bad and the path is sometimes hard to find despite GPS.
