Government Canyon State Natural Area

Tiny Beauty

Government Canyon SNA is a pretty new camping area. The 25 sites are all walk in. Some are closer than others to the parking lot.

There are two bathrooms (both composting), and one trough-like sink. At the head of each trail to the sites, there are water spigots.

The campsites are of decent size, but use crushed rock as their base. They have picnic tables and little cupboards to put items in.

The most popular trail is the Joe Johnston Route, which features dinosaur tracks. They can also be seen from above on the Overlook Trail.

Over all, a lovely park to visit.
