Most Comical Park in America

Goblin Valley State Park

Years ago I had heard that this small Utah State Park was the most comical park in America.  At the time I had difficulty understanding just what that meant.






Now I understand.














Situated twenty-some miles north of Hanksville UT, Goblin Valley spreads these odd formations across the landscape, inviting comparisons to fantasy figures out of fairy tales.



The Henry Mountains in the background
































A very entertaining place to take a walk, despite the crowds on Spring Break.

Then we headed back south to Cedar Mesa and camped at the head of Bullet Canyon, an arm of Grand Gulch.  We visited a very special place down along Bullet, Perfect Kiva.

Last stabilized in 1975, Perfect Kiva is in astonishingly good condition
