Deadhorse Point State Park (Moab, UT)


Dead Horse Point State Park is a state park of Utah in the United States, featuring a dramatic overlook of the Colorado River and Canyonlands National Park. The park is so named because of its use as a natural corral by cowboys in the 19th century. The "dead horse" part of the name is that the corral was abandoned, but the horses did not leave the corral, even after the gate was left open, and died there.
On April 22nd, I headed for Deadhorse. Google map showed shorter route but a closer look showed most is an off road vehicle road.
