A wooden observation deck extends out from the trail to give you an unobstructed view of the Fountain Formation. The dramatic fin-shaped red rock formations cut out of the ground in stark contrast to the greenery at their feet. These rocks are a part of the same formation that creates Garden of the Gods and Red Rocks Amphitheater.
