There are many grand sites to see within in the state of Utah and the beauty of The Grand Staircase Escalante National Monument is undeniable. This historic national monument covers over 1.7 million acres of land, one of the largest of its kind. Within the monument, there are vast ranges of geological formations and features in addition to the world renowned paleontological sites which combine to make this sight a must see. Because of its size, it is also a place that you can spend a fair amount of time exploring and enjoying the natural beauty that surrounds. The three main sections of the park that travel blogger Ammon Cunningham have enjoyed are the Canyons of the Escalante, the Kaiparowits Plateau, and the Grand Staircase. The canyons provide shade and architecture, and the plateau provides the view while the staircase shows you the natural beauty that has developed over time. While all these sections are in the same park, they each have a feeling of remoteness. Within each part, viewers feel as though they are in a park of their own. This effect makes the park an important one to visit according to Ammon Cunningham’s standards. It is almost like visiting three parks in one. If you are in the Utah area, this is a site to behold: Or should I say, three sites to behold. Comments are closed.
