San Juan River Goosenecks

San Juan River Goosenecks

Photo by Ben Prepelka

The Goosenecks State Park, Utah, sitting on top a desert mesa, overlooks the San Juan River. Here, lying at your feet, a 1,000 foot drop. The river below meanders for five miles, progressing only one linear mile as it flows to join the Colorado River.
This viewpoint at Goosenecks State Park provides a spectacular sight in an area that is filled with scenic landscapes. Moki Dugway, just to the north, provides an elevated viewpoint at Mulley Point and overlooks Valley of the Gods, Mexican Hat and Monument Valley.
