Travel: Return To Candy Cliffs (2 of 2) 2026-06-12 - Leeds, Utah - Photo by Robert Ellis, robertelliswoodworking.com. Robert writes, "We hiked the 'additional' 1/2 mile to this second observation point. In many ways it exceeds the first; mostly the swirls seem to be more prominent. The navigator stayed mostly at a higher level, and ultimately I scrambled my way down to this spot. What looked like an easy hike, wasn't! In my youthful days I would have been crawling all over this place. I imagine sticking around for sunset would have yielded some spectacular views, but not for these Kentuckians...we had a little trouble (in full daylight) re-locating the 'goat path of a trail' that drops down into this area. That, combined with the hard-to-find trail at the top, made the decision to leave now the only wisely available choice. Sadly, this gem of an area is often overlooked due to the National Parks, Zion and Bryce Canyon being the main destination of vacationers for this area. Running into another couple on this trail, we all agreed that this place is worthy of some kinda Park status. Road improvements, bigger parking area at the trail head and marked trails would draw more visitors to it. But...then again, does Utah need any more attractions? Off in the far distance is the town of St. George." Read More... | Permalink | Comments?
