Canyonlands National Park, Utah (and Deadhorse Point State Park)
Posted by: budgettravel in Hikes, Interesting Natural Feature, United States of America 1 year, 4 months ago
Chesler Park Loop/Joint Trail, Needles District, Canyonlands NP, Utah
The Needles district of Canyonlands National Park holds my favorite hike of our trip, my favorite hike of all-time as it stands now. The hike starts off going up some steps, to a view of miles and miles of white-topped red mushroom rocks below. As we walked further, I noticed huge red and white rock structures to our right and ahead. Eventually, three huge structures of red and white rocks appeared before us. As I walked closer to Chesler Park, these structures started looking like castles. It became obvious how massive these rock structures really were, as we walked up to it.
