Absolutely stunning! You can camp right near the edge if you're lucky! Also look into Sheep's Creek Campground before you commit to anything. Totally gorgeous. Photo below was taken on a cliffside overlook that was a one minute walk from my campsite.
Great views of the canyon and the George. Just to see it this time of year with nobody else around was perfect
Beautiful views of Flaming Gorge
