Green River Overlook, Canyonlands National Park, Utah.

Green River Overlook, Canyonlands National Park, Utah.

I photographed sunset from this beautful viewpoint a couple different evenings on our trip.

If you look closely, you can see the White Rim Road.  The best overnight camping sites along this 4 wheel drive road are by permit only and fill months in advance.  I would love to camp down there someday, hopefully on our next visit.  We have friends from Seward who have mountain biked the trail and said it was amazing.

Here are more Canyonlands National Park photos.

Great view Ron. I can just imagine having a campsite on the edge of one of those cliffs.

Thanks Mark – I agree – what a place to watch sunset!

That’s really beautiful! I can see that road over to the left on the pic. Man, that would be a great place to camp! Are you still going to the Salton Sea area soon? Hi Janine! Great pic on that tree!!

Hi Beth,

Yep, we are heading down to the Salton Sea area in a few weeks.

Thanks,

Ron

I am so jealous .. We have been talking about going there for awhile now.

Wow, I love this. It’s so other-worldy that it almost looks computer generated.

Thanks a lot Zach!
