The trail to get here is easy and relatively short (about three miles round-trip) if you park across the street from the Firefighters Memorial Campground.

For your efforts, you get a beautiful, sort of side-on view of the Green River as it flows through Red Canyon, a part of Flaming Gorge National Recreation Area.
