Paria Canyon - White Pocket

The area of White Pocket on the Paria Plateau in Northern Arizona is very impressive. The "White Pocket" area is seldom visited. Maybe because of its remoteness or the requirement of 4WD to access the area. The drive to the swirling, twisted, multicolored natural artwork is an adventure in its own right, and the exploration by foot is endless. This area has colors, shapes and textures that are hard to beat, but remember that it is an extremely fragile environment and the utmost care should be taken to preserve this place. Tread lightly and make it a point to see if you can leave the area without anyone ever having known that you were there. Stay on the slickrock when possible, but be careful not to snap off thin fins and don't trample the delicate vegetation between the small mounds of beautiful stone. This area should, and can be, saved for any and all that visit in the future
