Potash Road, Moab: Scenic Drives & Ancient Stories
Potash Road in Moab, Utah, is a hidden gem that offers an unforgettable experience for adventurers and nature lovers.

Whether you're driving, jogging, or simply soaking in the views, Potash Road invites exploration of natural beauty and history.
Why it Belongs on Your Itinerary
Quiet pullouts for stellar views—arches, steep cliffs, dinosaur tracks, and the flush of shadow at Wall Street.
Petroglyph panels are visible nearly 5 miles in; dinosaur tracks are near Poison Spider Trail.
Spring & fall are magic: mild temps, fewer crowds, better light for photos.
Tips & Practical Notes
Watch for climbers & cyclists, especially around Wall Street.
Respect the rock art—observe, photograph, don’t touch.
Bring water, shade, and a hat; roads are paved mostly, but conditions can shift.

A few infrared images from January's trip to the Moab area. These were captured on a couple of hikes off of the Potash Road, ~1500' below Dead Horse Point, but about 600' above the Colorado River. The sheer towers and cliffs are Wingate Formation (~200 million years ago) whilst the rounded, softer underlying sandstone that we were walking through and over is from the Organ Rock Formation, which is about 260 million years old. The Potash Road itself rests on ~275 million year old Cedar Mesa Sandstone. #clayhausphotography #potashroad #greatercanyonlands https://www.instagram.com/p/Co_iXzAuZH7/?igshid=NGJjMDIxMWI=
