Devil’s Lane Hike & Campout – Needles District, Canyonlands NP
Details
This will be a strenuous 10-mile round-trip hike, taking approximately 6 hours to complete. Devil’s Lane is located in the Grabens area of the Needles District of Canyonlands National Park, northwest of Monticello, Utah.
This exceptionally scenic canyon features a stunning Barrier Canyon Style pictograph panel, with larger-than-life figures peering out over the narrow valley from a cliff at least 100 feet above the canyon floor. Several additional rock art panels can also be found in the area, some of which may be Fremont style.
