Description: Hole-In-The-Rock in southeastern Utah is a notable landmark within the Glen Canyon National Recreation Area, renowned for its natural formation and historical significance. This large cleft in the sandstone cliffs was famously used by Mormon pioneers during the 1879-1880 San Juan Mission expedition, who undertook the arduous task of widening the narrow passage to allow their wagons to pass through. Today, the site attracts hikers and history enthusiasts who are drawn to its rugged beauty, the challenging trail, and the remarkable story of pioneer perseverance. The area offers stunning views and serves as a gateway for exploring the expansive and scenic desert landscape.
