FULL- Mansard Trail Hike

Presented by: Erica Stone

Outdoor Adventure

Date: May 9, 2024

Time: 7:30 AM Utah Time - 11:00 AM Utah Time

Enjoy sweeping views of the area while hiking from the desert floor to the mesa top. After a short scramble, we'll rest to take in the views at what locals call "Turtle Rock", and then continue along the trail through a mature Juniper forest. Once at the petroglyph site, we’ll ponder why those who came before us chose to decorate this place, and what they may have been hoping to convey.

Always show respect when visiting rock art sites! Never touch, deface, trace, slide on, or otherwise damage rock writing. Do not make markings or signatures on any of the rock surfaces around the site. Leave the sand where it is. Do not dig holes or brush sand off the rock writing panel. Leave No Trace.

This is a moderate 5 mile out-and-back hike. Dogs on leash are allowed, but be prepared to help them at the scramble. Bring a snack and plenty of water, wear hiking shoes and sunscreen. There are no restrooms at the trailhead.
