Canyonlands National Park – Island in the Sky - Utah

Images of Canyonlands National Park – Eastern Utah, taken in April 2016.

Aptly described in the park brochures as the “observation tower” of Canyonlands National Park, The Island in the Sky region primarily overlooks all the canyons, mesas and rivers below. There are incredible views in all directions highlighted by the view of Monument Basin from the Grand View Point Overlook, or by the view of Buck Canyon through Mesa Arch, or the view of the Green River in the Soda Springs Basin…then add a little cloud cover at times for dramatic effect and you have unbelievable panoramas that are hard to represent or even comprehend!
