Horseshoe Bend, located in Glen Canyon National Recreation Area, showcases the power of nature in motion. A 1,000-foot overlook reveals the Colorado River sweeping gracefully around sandstone cliffs, a formation shaped by the uplift of the Colorado Plateau over five million years ago. It’s easy to see why this breathtaking view remains one of the most visited and beloved landscapes in the Southwest. 😍 📸 @ap.alvarenga 📍 Diné Bikéyah, Hopitutskwa, Núu-agha-tʉvʉ-pʉ̱ (Ute), Nuwuvi (Southern Paiut

The Gauley River is always a good time! Gauley River National Recreation Area is a unit of the National Park Service and is home to the world-renowned Gauley River. Every fall, for six weekends, the Summersville Dam releases water into the Gauley River to allow for "Gauley Season." This rush of water creates multiple V rapids, making it some of the most adventurous whitewater rafting in the eastern US. 💦🌊 https://visitwv.com/partners/gauley-river-national-recreation-area/ #visitwv #nationalpar
