About Snow Canyon State Park

Snow Canyon State Park sits ten minutes north of St George — diverse sandstone climbing spread across Island in the Sky, West Canyon, Hackberry Wash Wall, and The Enclosure. 'Some reminiscent of the good stuff at Red Rocks NV, some resembling the softer formations of Zion National Park' per MP — mixed rock quality, so pick sectors carefully. Utah State Parks day-use fee. Same 48h wet-sandstone minimum.
