Southeast Utah and Canyon Country

Southeast Utah and Canyon Country

Southeastern Utah isn't your typical outdoor playground. Mountain bikers zip along sandstone roller-coasters. Hikers are swallowed up by winding, narrow slots. Climbers scale rock formations so fantastic they ought to be part of a Martian landscape (or maybe a Road Runner and Coyote cartoon). Utah's extraordinary red-rock wonders were created by wind, water, and geologic pressure, over millions of years. You'll wish you had that much time to explore them.
