Beautiful overlook of Sand Canyon

This is the end of FS road 4726. The other site in this area is 4725. The description for here is similar to the description of the other. Incredible vista in all directions. The road starts a little rough but it is smooth after climbing that first hill. There are many sites in both directions along the edge of the mesa.

Here mid-May.
