Welcome fellow adventurers! If you're looking for something unique to scout, you're at the right place.
Recently, I was able to check out Fantasy Canyon.
Though only 10 acres in size, this place will definitely have you feeling lost among gargoyle-like sand structures.
A definite must see, for anyone in search for an out of this world experience!
Adventure Notes:
Name: Fantasy Canyon
What you can do there:
Search for unique structures
Discover hidden caves
Hike along high scorched dunes
Collect pieces of petrified sand
How to get there:
From Vernal take U.S. Route 40 until it curves southeast and then turn right (south) on Utah State Route 45. After crossing the Green River, travel about 13 miles, then turn right onto Glen Bench Road. The BLM signs for Fantasy Canyon begin here.
Following these signs is the best way to prevent getting lost because this area is a confusing labyrinth of oil company service roads.
Once on Glen Bench Road drive 0.3 miles and veer left, staying on the paved road. After about 13 miles take a left (southeast) onto an unpaved road (Watson Road – the road is unpaved in this direction and paved on the opposite, northwest side of the intersection).
Go 2.4 miles and veer right, then 0.9 miles and take another right, then 0.5 miles – crossing Red Wash on the way – and turn left, and then after 0.6 miles take a right turn for the final tenth of a mile.
Avoid going in rainy weather or if the dirt roads are wet because they are very slick, potholed, and cross washes. Also, this is a gas field buzzing with a high volume of truck traffic and the road is fairly rough, so please drive cautiously. (Courtesy of Geosights)

Happy Travels,
