Upheaval Dome, near the north end of Canyonlands National Park provides a visible geology lesson on the effects of erosion on the salt layer underlying the sandstone fornations of southeastern Utah. The vsst interior of the crater can be explored by the well-conditioned hiker. One word of caution, however: the return trip is all uphill. Upheaval Dome can be reached by a two-wheel-drive road and a short hike on a well-marked trail. As in all desert travel, water and plenty of gas shuuld be carried, as there are no services provided inside the park. |
