Canyonland National Park

This park has three sections.  The Needles where the eroded rocks reminded me of the New York skyline from a distance.  Island in the Sky is a plateau between the canyons created by the Colorado and Green Rivers at a 6000 ft elevation.  The plateau is very narrow at the "neck" creating an Island in the Sky.  The Maze is the third part and you either hike, ride a horse or drive a off road vehicle.  There are no roads and trails.  You make your own. A little rough for me.  Plenty of fantastic land forms to keep your interest.
