Flickr album link: Little Grand Canyon Overlook A previous article features the Wedge Recreation Area, which is a great spot for picnics and camping in the San Rafael Swell region of Utah. For those who opt for an overnighter, there is no better place to soak up some majestic views at sunrise. Both the Wedge Overlook and the Little Grand Canyon Overlook are within walking distance from the recreation area campsites, so catching the early morning light is easy to do. The San Rafael River flows way down below in this deep abyss and the views certainly are reminiscent of the western end of the grand Canyon in Arizona. The geology of this unique upheaval area is fascinating to see and it is complicated to explain, so there will be plenty to ponder over while gazing at this amazing terrain. The Little Grand Canyon Overlook certainly is an inspiration for landscape artists, so be sure to pack an artist's palette or high resolution camera for the ride!

New!
Destination West YouTube channel! https://www.youtube.com/@DestinationWestOrg *The Destination West website upgrading project is well underway. Unique YouTube slideshows are replacing the outdated Flickr photo galleries. The new videos feature modern graphics and alternative music instrumentals that enhance the viewing experience. Some articles are being condensed, while others are getting much needed edits. As everybody knows, the bulk of the original articles and photos were published on the fly during the Covid camping venture and there were limitations. Upgrading is the way to go and more articles will receive a makeover each week until this project is completed. After that, I will be able to gather new material. There is light at the end of the tunnel!
