Webcams for Canyonlands Fans

For those of you(like us) who have never been to Canyonlands Island In The Sky and surrounding area with snow. Here you go, the following website is a treat.

Snow Covered

Can't go tomorrow or even next month, Darn.
  • We are heading to the Arches/Canyonlands area this spring. Looking forward to it.
  • We were there last Oct/Nov and left just before the first snow fell. What a beautiful area!
  • When you look at photos like this, it's just simply mind boggling thinking about the first settlers that traveled across stretches of territories like this heading West. It's hard to imagine the American Indians who called all of this "home" ... and surviving, winter after winter after winter. Simply amazing!

    Beautiful photos!
  • Wasn't in Canyonlands but was in Arches Saturday before the snowstorm arrived. Saturday was mostly cloudy a few spots of sunshine then some very light rain around 6pm. Was half expecting snow throughout the night but nope. We left Sunday 8am and headed back to Denver arrrrrgh ski traffic. the Moab area was looking for 4-8 inches under a winter storm warning. There was a fair amount of snow on the ground already from previous snowfall. Any place that didn't get sun all day still had snow on the ground. One hike we bailed on as too much ice didn't bring the yak traks. Delicate Arch was good except for the last 100 yards which was icy but doable though saw a couple sliding on their rear ends to get down. Wanted to get up to Dead Horse Point but by the time we got done in Arches it would have been dark by the time we got there. Saw half a dozen tent campers at Arches in the campground no RV's though.
