If you have been there, you understand why. I just came back from 7 days exploring the Grand Staircase-Escalante NM, Glen Canyon NRA, and a little bit of the Cedar Mesa area. It went something like this.
Drove to Page, gassed up. Continued to Big Water, UT, and start up Smokey Mountain Rd. Take the detour to Alstrom Point. The point is very popular, and that Monday was no exception. Checked up before reaching the point, mostly because I figured it was a parking lot with people watching the sunset. Plus, I found a killer campsite, and I didn't want to loose it. Based on the traffic driving out after sunset I think I made a good decision.
