About Little Rockies
The Little Rockies are a small, isolated mountain range located in southeastern Utah. Spanning just 20 miles across, the range rises abruptly from the surrounding high desert landscape, reaching elevations over 11,000 feet. The geology features exposed granite and limestone cliffs, with steep, rugged canyons and ridges. Dense coniferous forests, alpine meadows, and hidden lakes characterize the landscape at higher elevations.
