Heading north into the park, this overlook is the first overlook approached on the right. It loops around, and has parking for approximately 10 vehicles. A small flattened section acts as a viewing platform, and signs lay out the names of the formations in front of you.

Here, you look out at the Three Gossips, Sheep Rock, the Tower of Babel, and can even see Balanced Rock in the distance.
