Part of the Western Slope Group's "Fall Canyons" trip. Participants must be registered for the Fall Canyons trip.
The main objective is theNeck Spring Trail. Moderate 6-mile loop hike with 800' elevation change. The trail leads hikers west from the "The Neck", first along the canyon rim then onto an upper bench within the canyon, passing several relics of early ranching in the area. After Neck Spring, we'll continue out to Grand View Point for the view & an optional, easy 2-mile round trip hike there.
Meet at 9 a.m. in the paved parking area on the north side of UT-313, 250' west of the US-191 / UT-313 jct where there is a "Park Information" kiosk. If you pass the entrance to Moab Giants you've gone too far. We'll carpool to the trailhead from here.
From Moab: Drive north on US-191 about 11 miles to UT-313.
From Utahraptor State Park: Drive south on US-191 about 4 milwa to UT-313.
