Description
Dead Horse Point is perhaps Utah's most
spectacular state park. Towering 2,000 feet directly above the Colorado
River, Dead Horse Point provides a breathtaking panorama of Canyonlands'
sculptured pinnacles and buttes. Dead Horse Point is on State Route 313,
18 miles off Highway 191 near Moab. The visitor center, interpretive
museum, modern rest rooms, 21-unit campground, sewage disposal station,
group camping area, pavilion and large overlook shelter make Dead Horse
Point comfortable and informative as well as spectacular. |
