Just inside Capital Reef National Park, accessed by a fair weather dirt road best driven by a vehicle with good ground clearance. 4 wheel drive not necessary unless it is wet and muddy. Well worth the short side trip off off the Burr Trail. Spectacular vista! Bring water and plan to pack out your trash. There are a couple picnic tables but no other amenities including no shade at this trailhead.
Really cool and fun
It was an interesting hike but we almost died so other than that it was really good
But beware it is an experienced hike only.
Long and slow drive to get to the overlook. Rough road. I was in lifted Nissan Xterra with 11" ground clearance but only 2wd. Coming back barely made it up the steep road burning tires on rock walls. At the overlook, unless you hike down, the views are nothing special. The view looks like everything else within 50 miles.
