We were in and out of this park several times while we were in southern Utah and Northern Arizona. Escalante carries the designation of National Monument instead of National Park. I'm not sure what this means, other than it is managed by the Bureau of Land Management instead of the National Park Service.Escalante covers such a wide area that it is difficult to see it all. The two areas that we saw are the Canyons area near Boulder, Utah and the Grand Staircase near Fredonia, AZ. There are many parts of this national monument that we missed because we didn't know to go there.
On a future trip (or perhaps later in this trip?), I would like to spend more time near Page, AZ exploring some of the amazing sites there.
Oh well, here are a few photos that we did take:
