Hello Mallory

Buck Canyon Overlook in Canyonlands National Park offers stunning views of the Colorado River canyon from a paved overlook. The overlook is accessible via a short paved walkway, making it wheelchair-friendly. It faces directly east so makes for a great alternative for sunrise OR for sunset when the sun is lower in the lower. Golden hour is hard bc there are harsh shadow lines, as the sun will be directly behind you.

If you look Northeast from the overlook, you can also see the Potash Ponds in the distance (second photo)

The photos I posted are about 20 minutes prior to sunset in the winter sky.
