点评:Dead Horse Point State Park is conveniently located near the Island in the Sky District of Canyonlands NP.
While it is a smaller state park, the scenery is as stunning as its neighboring national parks. We stopped here after leaving Canyonland’s Island in the Sky District.
Tip: Stop at the Visitor Center for a map. Note: The Visitor Center has an assortment of sodas, water, snacks and ice cream available for purchase unlike the national park visitor centers at Arches and Canyonlands.
Our favorite viewpoint was the Dead Horse Viewpoint. You can see the cliff from the final scene of the movie Thelma and Louis where the car went off the cliff. The views are incredible. We didn’t hike any of the trails here so it only took an hour or two to see everything. Most viewpoints are accessible only on trails.
翻译:死马点州立公园位置便利,靠近峡谷地国家公园的天空岛区。
虽然它是一个较小的州立公园,但风景与邻近的国家公园一样令人惊叹。离开峡谷地国家公园的天空岛区后,我们在这里停留。
提示:在游客中心停下来拿一张地图。注意:游客中心有各种苏打水、水、零食和冰淇淋可供购买,与拱门国家公园和峡谷地国家公园的游客中心不同。
我们最喜欢的观景点是死马点观景点。你可以看到电影《末路狂花》的最后一幕中汽车从悬崖上冲下来的悬崖。景色令人难以置信。我们没有徒步走过这里的任何小径,所以只花了一两个小时就看完了所有风景。大多数观景点只能通过小径到达。
