has to offer. We’ll learn some cowboy history on
the Cave Spring trail, explore Anasazi Ruins and
hike some of the park’s best red rock on the
Peek-A-Book Trail, marvel at the vivid crimson color
of the claret cup cactus and the Indian Paintbrush,
have lunch high above the confluence of the Colorado
and Green Rivers, search for Dinosaur tracks left in
ancient river beds and try to decipher petroglyph

and you’ll see nature in a way few do!
