Pullout
This pullout on the Flaming Gorge - Green River Basin Scenic Byway sits at 7,924 feet, facing west across terrain that drops 348 feet within 600 meters of the overlook. The view takes in a line of peaks across the west and northwest: Ramsey Peak 4.0 miles west at 8,004 feet, Hogback 6.4 miles west-northwest at 8,107 feet, Parea Butte 5.9 miles northwest at 7,725 feet, Sheep Mountain 8.3 miles northwest at 7,786 feet, and Flattop Mountain 17.1 miles northwest at 7,260 feet. Because the overlook faces directly toward the western horizon, the setting sun lines up with the view; sunset falls between about 16:52 in December and 20:54 in June, depending on the season. Rock Springs lies 28.1 miles to the north, Green River 28.3 miles north-northwest, and North Rock Springs 32.4 miles north.
