Overview

Big Draw Road, named after the nearby Big Draw Wash that flows into Taylor Canyon, is an easy 4WD road that travels through the BLM desert to the northern edge of Canyonlands National Park. At the trail's end lies the rocky cliffs looking deep into the Taylor Canyon below. This trail takes you through several desert terrains, and you can experience sand, dirt, and rock surfaces. Along the way, you can see Beehive Butte, a rock structure that looks like the state symbol for the State of Utah. Not heavily traveled, the Big Draw Road can be a nice escape from the crowds to see the stunning views Mother Nature created for you to enjoy.
