What a cool State Park! We were in Southern Utah see the National Parks I am so glad that @jarvie took us to other cool places like Goblin Valley and Dead Horse State Park.
Just look at the geology! @eolinde what do you think?
Dead Horse State Park
For one of the #photogames I had people tell a story about why it is called Dead Horse State Park. Here is a link to that post if you are as interested in the name as I am.
This is the first view you see coming from the parking lot.
There is a trail that goes along the canyon's edge.
Hiking trails
We did the very easy and mostly paved rim trail and went from the visitor Center around to the Rim Overlook. I considered it more walking than hiking. Hey this map says hiking trials!
Got a cool retro picture of Kimberly.
Potash
What is potash? That is a question I was asking myself too. This place made me very curious!
For another @photogames I hosted I had people guess what the shiny thing was in the distance.
@derekkind answered and linked a awesome video. I would suggest it if you would like to learn about potash and how it is mined in the desert of Utah.

Dead Horse Point
While there are places to look out on the trail this area had a great lookout area. Can you see the horse?

Dead Horse State Park is a great stop if you are going to Canyonlands and Arches.

Amazing nature and superb snaps Sara. Love the picture of Jodi and you posing :)
Aww thanks Trang. I just got back from Wyoming so will have some great pictures of the mountains soon.
Wow! It looks like a huge playground for a geologist, hahaha. It's beautiful and there is a lot to see: the strata (some record, huh?),the meandering river, the potash.
But I loved the plants too. Plants growing in arid regions are specially beautiful, I think.
Keep enjoying!
Thanks @eolinde. I hope that you get to see southern Utah someday. It is very fascinating. I love the plants that make there home in the rocky landscape like this too.
Wow, what a cool place! Amazing view, landscape!
And I see a horse. :)
Thank you @alechi. So glad you can see the horse. It took me awhile.
That's a funny name for the park. Makes you wonder how many horses died in the past trying to get through it.
Awesome photos. I like that tree with the twisted trunk. That's really cool.
Sadly, I think a lot of horses probably died for it to get that name. It must have been so hot in that part of the country before air conditioning.
Absolutly awesome pics of this view ❤️ !
Thanks @chuitocastle

Beautiful landscape...we were out there by Cedar City a few years ago but didn't quite get the chance to see a whole lot. It's beautiful country though...we can't wait to return.
Yes, you will have to see some more places when you come to Utah again.
