Utah Sights & Attractions
Home to hundreds of petroglyphs and pictographs, some consider the best in the world. Also known for: in 2003, Aron Ralston of Colorado was lifted by helicopter from this canyon after surviving 5 days in a nearby canyon with his arm pined by a boulder. His only way of escape was to cut his arm off with his pocket knife. While hiking out one arm less, he ran into some hikers on this trail. Maybe I had both arms but this trail was brutal with 2 kids on me. I got some funny looks and a few concerned comments like...do you need some water? My response was, do you need some?
