DESTINATION

Escalante

Escalante is near the Kaiparowits Plateau, a sparsely settled area of highly eroded rock formations that extends east to the Colorado River and south to Arizona. There are numerous recreational opportunities at nearby Grand Staircase-Escalante National Monument. Events at the Escalante Canyons Art Festival, held in late September, include a plein air painting competition, lectures, films and gallery open houses.
