Balanced Boulder
Little Egypt
Garfield County
Utah

Tucked away in remote southern Utah, Little Egypt is a hidden gem of towering hoodoos and sandstone formations. Shaped by millennia of wind and erosion, the landscape evokes ancient Egyptian temples and statues, earning the area its distinctive name.

It offers a serene, uncrowded escape where you can wander among crimson spires and labyrinthine rock corridors in near silence. The warm, rusty hues of the stone blaze brilliantly at sunrise and sunset, casting surreal shadows that seem to animate the land itself.

Little Egypt is a surreal, otherworldly landscape nestled in the Utah backcountry.

Prints and products are available through this site or my Pixels - Fine Art America site. See more of my Utah photography here.
