Visited twice in a month. Phenomenal views everywhere. Stop at as many points of interest as you can. Mesa Arch. Grand View Point. Even drove down from Canyonlands via Potash Rd to Moab where our hotel was. Such a fun and Amazing experience. Lots of photo apps. Will come back and bring others. Love touring National Parks. This Country and this World has so much to offer. Go explore.

Amazing place. Wish i had the rest of my life to fully explore it all. Dinosaur fossils can be found as well as footprint fossils. Wind can be a bit harsh at time, so a windbreaker is recommended especially in winter months. Syncline loop trail is strenuous but an amazing hike. Advise downloading map prior to trying the trail as path can be difficult to see, and someone set cairns up but they will lead you off trail and don't advise followng. Amazing to see so much of Earths history in the short time I was able to spend there.

Absolutely stunning scenery for miles in all directions. I’ve only seen two other vehicles all day and it just feels incredibly remote. Awesome place to come and get away from it all.

The Mesa Arch is a must! Short worth it hike, that has you excited for the remainder of the park! We enjoyed what we could see and the attendant in the shop was very helpful! Will be back for more stellar views and longer hikes!
