Book Cliffs

On our way down to Moab, we stopped to take a quick hike in the Books Cliffs.  We took the exit for Highway 123 from 191 and drove past the towns of East Carbon and Sunnydale.  We stopped at the first available 2x4 road and hiked up as far as the snow pack allowed.  On the map it appears to be Pole Canyon Road.  Next time we should try the Horse Canyon exit.
