| partners | | This was one of two short hikes on the drive north for a five day/four night trip to northern Arizona and southern Utah. It's a very fast, short, and easy hike just off Highway 89A near the Glen Canyon Dam. The views to the west aren't great, with a lot of buildings and power lines, but looking east toward Lake Powell and the white cliffs and rock formations is more scenic.
There were a few other hikers on the short route to Hanging Gardens, and it was a nice oasis in an otherwise extremely dry area, with cool shade and some greenery where water seeps out of the rock. The trail itself isn't terribly exciting, but we saw a chuckwalla, and this was a nice spot to stretch our legs on a day with a lot of driving. |
