About Sand Hills

The Sand Hills mountain range is a small, isolated mountain range located in southeastern Utah. This range is characterized by rugged sandstone ridges, steep canyons, and scattered juniper and pinyon pine forests. The terrain is generally rough and rocky, with many areas consisting of exposed sandstone outcroppings and cliffs. The Sand Hills rise from the surrounding desert landscape, providing a dramatic contrast to the flat, arid regions that surround them.
