13의 에머리 카운티가지 명소 & 주요 장소

It's a living corridor, a ribbon of winding sandstone, a succession of walls that meander and undulate. The sandstone, polished by wind and tide, has almost human curves, hips, waves, draperies, and folds of fabric frozen in the colors of the surroundings. At this point, we exchanged our water shoes for our hiking boots. After that, the paths remained dry.

Little Wild Horse and Bell Slot Canyons, unfortunately the unfinished ones for us 😥🙁😥 Today the Little Wild Horse Canyon and possibly the Bell Canyon should be visited. The two canyons can be explored in an approximately 13 km long circular tour. Here you can find my planned complete tour: komoot.de/tour/822561321 We left Goblin Campground very early because it was the weekend and all hell is supposed to break loose in the canyons on the weekend. The road to the trailhead is now paved, so it wasn't a problem even for our motorhome. When we arrived at the trailhead we were the very first ones 😃 So much for my phobia the previous days: we're pretty sure we won't get a parking space 😱 After a good breakfast we went to the Little wild horse canyon. At the beginning you go up the common wash to the junction and turn right there to Little Wild Horse Canyon. A signpost shows the way. My recommendation: Be sure to go through Little wild horse Canyon first, as most people do that. Because at the bottlenecks there is no way to get past each other in oncoming traffic!!! Now it became wonderfully nice to fight your way through the sometimes narrow and then wider places. However, after about a kilometer we were forced to make a decision in a narrow area with a boulder. Either climb over the boulder and not know whether we can overcome it again on the way back or continue walking the entire 13 km circular route or turn back here. We decided to turn back, especially since I had also pre-booked a slot canyon “Cardiac Canyon” with Page. In 2012 I was nearby in the world-famous Lower Antelope Canyon: flickr.com/photos/pharoahsax/albums/72157641505310913 On the way back we wanted to walk at least a little bit into Bell Canyon. But unfortunately a smooth rock barrier blocked the way for us old men, so we surrendered here too and ended the tour. In conclusion: Despite the cancellation, it was worth going on this tour😊 For younger people it is certainly no problem to overcome the rock and complete the circular tour, especially since you come from above at the rock barrier and you can always get down 😉

Trails are impossible to find since there are no markers

Wild Horse Window is a large hollowed out grotto, creating a natural skylight. It is sometimes referred to as Skylight Arch.

The "goblins" are sandstone hoodoos, which are mushroom-shaped rock pinnacles formed by erosion. There are thousands of these goblins making it a surreal Mars-like landscape.

Little Wild Horse is a classic Utah slot canyon with a long stretch of "narrows", or tight, high canyon walls. It is a great introduction to exploring slot canyons.

Bell Canyon is in the heart of San Rafael Swell and goes from the Little Wild Horse Trailhead to the Behind the Reef Road. While not quite as narrow as its neighbor Little Wild Horse, it's still worth checking out.

Goblin Valley 1: If you look southwest from the parking lot, you can see the largest area, Valley 1, directly below the higher parking lot. The Goblin Valley extends over 3 valleys or rather areas that are not really easy to distinguish or recognize geographically. Each valley is different from the others and each is worth visiting. If you have reached one of the valleys, you will find, if you are lucky, at least one sign of the same and you will know which of the 3 "valleys" you have reached :-) However, it is precisely the beauty of the Goblin Valley that you can explore the area without any restrictions and fixed routes and it is not really important in which area you are currently exploring. Here you can let your imagination wander everywhere to admire the respective natural works of art and recognize animals, gnomes, goblins or other objects in them.
