The
scenic sandstone formations, streams, and deep canyons of the San Rafael
Swell are an incredible example of the earth's force. Erosion has exposed
strips of colors in the huge plates of stone, set on edge almost 65
million years ago. You can hike the canyons themselves or get a great view
of the Swell at the Cedar Mountain overlook and picnic area.
