    This overlook offers an incredible view of the picturesque red rock formations and steep canyon walls. From this vantage point, you can see Independence Monument, a towering spire shaped by erosion. Keep an eye out for bighorn sheep and golden eagles, which are often spotted from this fantastic spot.
