AMAZING GEOLOGY AND WORLD CLASS PHOTOGRAPHY!

Yellow Rock 35 Paria Outpost Outfitters Kanab Utah 1024x768 - YELLOW ROCK

Twenty miles down the most scenic, geologically diverse road in the area is a giant dome rock of bright swirling colors. It’s a thirty minute somewhat steep climb to see the “Yellow Rock”.

Somewhat known in the western landscape photography world, the largely unvisited Yellow Rock area offers up-close photography as well as stunning views of the Cockscomb fault line, which the Cottonwood Canyon Road follows for forty-eight miles.

This is world-class photography with lines of great color throughout Yellow Rock as well as well as lots of other photogenic formations in the surrounding Cockscomb area.

There is a lot to explore here, with only a forty-five minute driving time from the Outpost. Our guides will show you all the best photographic opportunities as well as discuss the surrounding area, giving you advice and tips about photo opportunities as well as places nearby to visit that you can do on your own, if you have the time . We’ll help you all we can to fully experience our part of the vast and diverse landscape of Southern Utah.

The climb to Yellow Rock is well worth the effort and it’s a really great place to see both amazing geology and great photography.

TESTIMONIALS

THEY’RE SIMPLY THE BEST!

We used this company twice – one with Steve and then with Mike. They are so knowledgeable and interesting to talk with. They were fun and great drivers through sand! We can’t say enough good about them. They enhanced our enjoyment of this trip–actually they made the trip for us. We hope to visit again and will definitely use them. Susan also was very helpful when we were planning the trip. .

The famous NORTH COYOTE BUTTES or SOUTH COYOTE BUTTES. IF you can be in Kanab, Utah at 9 a.m., try the North Coyote Buttes  Wave Lottery at the Kanab BLM visitor Center on Highway 89, or be there at 10 a.m. to try for a permit to the South Coyote Buttes, which, though less known, is easily as good or perhaps even better than the famous “Wave” that everyone wants. It’s easier to get this permit as well. However, only ten permits are available for each area per day at the Visitor Center. Permits are issued for the next day.
