Hike
Dead Horse Point Visitor Center Nature Trail, Dead Horse Point State Park, Utah
View Original Description
The paved path (1/8 mile round trip, very easy) just outside the Visitor Center offers great views of the basin to the east, the La Sal Mountains and Chimney Rock. Eight trail-side exhibits highlight some of the common desert plants and trees that you’re likely to encounter in the park, while an interpretive sign explains a unique feature that can be seen from many of the East Rim overlooks: solar evaporation ponds that are used in the mining of salt and potash.
