Canyonlands National Park

Canyonlands features another aspect of the uplifted Colorado Plateau - looking down into incredible canyons carved into the plateau by the Colorado and Green Rivers.

The vistas are jaw-dropping, pictures just cannot do justice to the magnificent visual spectacle

2000 feet below us the Colorado River cuts its way through the canyon it has carved over millions of years

The Green River (below)  in its much broader canyon, joins the Colorado River about 20 miles south of this overlook.

Let's not have any of those "step back just a little more"  jokes!
