Snow canyon state park An extraordinary mecca teeming with wild and wondrous adventures—from hiking and biking to technical rock climbing and horseback riding—Snow Canyon’s scenic 7,400-acre park is quietly tucked amid jumbled lava flows and soaring sandstone cliffs in a strikingly colorful and fragile desert environment. Black Desert gives you unparalleled connection to its gifts, including a private footpath leading directly to the park’s famed Johnson Arch and Scout Caves.
