The plaque says, "Slot canyons an panoramas
This is a major trailhead for a variety of hiking experiences. From here the trails go to extremes.
In Hidden and Echo Canyons, the walls begin to close in. Hikers in those slot canyons feel as if they are tunneling into the heart of Zion's sandstone.
By contrast, the trail to Observation Point opens onto an eagle view of Zion Canyon, looking down on Angels Landing and the river far below. Hikers measure the monumental scale of this place with each ascending footstep."
