Skutumpah & Johnson Canyon Rds

TIME : 2016/2/18 11:17:47

The most westerly route through the monument, the unpaved Skutumpah Rd (scoot-em -paw) heads southwest from Cottonwood Canyon Rd near Kodachrome Basin State Park. First views are of the southern end of Bryce Canyon's Pink Cliffs . A great little slot-canyon hike, accessible to young and old, is 6.5 miles south of the turnoff at Willis Creek .

After 35 miles (two hours), Skutumpah Rd intersects with the 16-mile paved Johnson Canyon Rd, and passes the White Cliffs and Vermilion Cliffs areas en route to Hwy 89 and Kanab. Four-wheel drive is recommended; ask GSENM rangers about current conditions.
