Welcome to Grand Staircase-Escalante National Monument!<\/p><\/div>\n
<\/span>Trailhead and Parking for Wahweap Hoodoos Trail<\/span><\/h2>\n
The trailhead is located near the town of Big Water, Utah and is about a one-hour’s drive from Kanab (to the west) or Page (to the east). The road to the trailhead is unimproved so be prepared to drive on gravel roads for 2-3 miles. About a half-mile from the trailhead, the road crosses a creek bed which sometimes has water in it. Because of this, many visitors choose to park on the other side of the creek and walk across. That’s what I did because I was worried about being trapped on the other side if the water levels rose. This adds .7 miles to the hike each way for a total of 1.4 additional miles.<\/p>\n
Driving directions:<\/strong> Big Water is located on US Highway 89. I recommend stopping by the Big Water Visitor Center first to get a map and current conditions – to do so turn south at the intersection of Highway 89 with Ethan Allen road. After your visit, drive north on Ethan Allen Road for .6 miles to Fish Hatchery Road and take a left.<\/p>\n
From here, you’ll drive along a gravel road for 3.2 miles past the fish hatchery to the trailhead. If you don’t want to cross the creek bed, drive for 2.5 miles instead and look for a pull-out along the side of the road. From here you can follow the road to the trailhead.<\/p>\n

<\/span>My Experience Hiking to the Wahweap Hoodoos<\/span><\/h2>\n
Note:<\/strong> Before starting out on this or any desert hike, be sure to bring plenty of water and sun protection, wear sturdy footwear, pack the 10 essentials<\/a>, and leave no trace<\/a> of your visit behind. Avoid hiking in summer or in the hottest part of the day. I also recommend a broad sun hat<\/a>. This area is prone to flash floods so pay attention to the weather forecast and exercise caution if it rains.<\/p>\n
My favorite hiking shoes? I never hit the trail without my Altra Lone Peak Trail Running Shoes<\/a>.<\/p>\n
<\/a> $\"\"$ <\/p>\n
<\/span>Hiking along the Creek Bed<\/span><\/h3>\n
The Wahweap Hoodoos Trail is a long march up a (hopefully) dry wash for about four miles. From the trailhead, continue along the dirt road for about .1 mile until you see a trail marker on the left side of the road. Here, the trail heads northwest across a flat sandy area to a gate. The Wilderness Study Area officially begins at this point and all motorized traffic is prohibited. Pass through the gate (being careful to shut the it behind you) and continue north.<\/p>\n
From here on out there is no trail to speak of. You simply follow along the creek bed until you reach the hoodoos. You should definitely have a map and know how to use it before attempting this hike. Personally, I downloaded the map to my phone ahead of time using the AllTrails app and I brought along a portable battery charger<\/a> in case my phone died.<\/p>\n

I began the hike by hiking along the area adjacent to the wash. It was really sandy and hard to walk through however so I quickly switched to walking in the dry creek bed itself.<\/p><\/div>\n

<\/span>The First Group of Hoodoos<\/span><\/h3>\n
There are several groups of hoodoos to explore and the first is reached after hiking for about four miles. The hoodoos are positioned along the left (west) side of the trail along the canyon wall and are easily visible from the creek bed. The spires are surrounded by a distinctive ragged cliff face that can be seen from miles away.<\/p>\n

<\/span>The Second Group of Hoodoos<\/span><\/h3>\n
Finding the next group of hoodoos takes a little bit of effort. A big brushy area blocks the path between the first two sets of hoodoos that is impossible to cross. You’ll have to circle around these bushes until you find a path through on the north side. I blundered around in the bushes for a bit until I finally pulled out my phone and located the correct path on my map program. When I hiked the trail, someone had thoughtfully placed an arrow on the ground made of rocks to ensure other hikers found their way.<\/p>\n

<\/span>The Third Group of Hoodoos<\/span><\/h3>\n
Once you’ve found the second group of hoodoos, the third is easy to locate. It’s about a three minutes away around the corner of a tall rock wall. These ones are perhaps the most spectacular as they are formed of white sandstone. Undulating mounds of white entrada sandstone line the canyon walls here and are out of this world.<\/p>\n
During my visit, a big storm rolled in just as I made it to the third group. Snowflakes swirled around me as I marveled at these magnificent spires. So I didn’t stay long. Unfortunately the dark sky made it difficult to take great photos so I did the best I could.<\/p>\n

<\/span>The Return Hike (in the Snow!)<\/span><\/h3>\n
Normally the return trip is the least interesting part of a hike. Not in my case. By the time I began heading back, the snow was falling in earnest. I make it a point to be ready for kinds of weather whenever I hike, so I was prepared with a puffy coat, extra layers and a raincoat.<\/p>\n
But it was still a little nerve-wracking to be caught in a snowstorm all alone in the wilderness miles from my vehicle.<\/p>\n
I was also worried that my RV would get stuck in the snow. Plus, I had no idea if snow would cause a flash flood (is that a thing?). So I hiked extra fast, while paying close attention to the creek bed behind me, and made it back in record time. The quick pace and extra layers helped to keep me toasty warm.<\/p>\n
Thankfully, the snow didn’t last for the entire return hike. The snowfall stopped after about an hour and the skies cleared. The wet sandy ground made for interesting walking, however. The muddy earth clung to my shoes in a thick layer and made my feet super heavy. I kept having to scrape it off.<\/p>\n
By the time I arrived at the trailhead, blue skies shone overhead. It just goes to show the weather can change quickly in the wilderness and you can never be too prepared!<\/p>\n

Less of a trail and more of a ramble, the trek follows along a sandy creek bed for over four miles until it finally reaches the impressive Wahweap Hoodoos in what used to be the Grande Staircase-Escalante National Monument. While the hike is long with somewhat repetitive scenery, the payout at the end is worth it. The Wahweap Hoodoos stand like ghostly sentinels surrounded by undulating mounds of white entrada sandstone, alien and absolutely beautiful.<\/p>\nThe Wahweap Hoodoos also serve as an important reminder of public policy and preservation. These magnificent hoodoos used to be a part of the Grand Staricase-Escalante National Monument located in Southern Utah. A proclamation issued by former President Trump in 2017, however, reduced the size of the monument by half. Unfortunately, now the Wahweap Hoodoos no longer fall under protected National Monument status.<\/p>\nI hiked this trail a couple of days ago and was treated to some wild weather. Snow began to fall just as I reached the Hoodoos and made for a very interesting hike. <\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":2691774,"featured_media":19308,"comment_status":"open","ping_status":"open","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"_et_pb_use_builder":"","_et_pb_old_content":"","_et_gb_content_width":"","_coblocks_attr":"","_coblocks_dimensions":"","_coblocks_responsive_height":"","_coblocks_accordion_ie_support":"","_monsterinsights_skip_tracking":false,"_monsterinsights_sitenote_active":false,"_monsterinsights_sitenote_note":"","_monsterinsights_sitenote_category":0,"jetpack_post_was_ever_published":false,"_jetpack_newsletter_access":"","_jetpack_dont_email_post_to_subs":false,"_jetpack_newsletter_tier_id":0,"_jetpack_memberships_contains_paywalled_content":false,"_jetpack_memberships_contains_paid_content":false,"footnotes":"","jetpack_publicize_message":"","jetpack_publicize_feature_enabled":true,"jetpack_social_post_already_shared":true,"jetpack_social_options":{"image_generator_settings":{"template":"highway","enabled":false},"version":2}},"categories":[693874174,693874175],"tags":[804320,693874179,693874177,693874176],"class_list":["post-13854","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","hentry","category-hiking-utah","category-travel-utah","tag-day-hike","tag-grand-staircase-escalante","tag-hoodoos","tag-wahweap-hoodoos"],"jetpack_publicize_connections":[],"yoast_head":"\n<title>Wahweap Hoodoos Trail: A Stunning Hike in Grand Staircase-Escalante<\/title>\n<meta name=\"description\" content=\"Planning a visit to Grand Staircase-Escalante National Monument?
