Up Diamond Fork Canyon there is a place to stop called Red Ledges, there are picnic tables, a restroom, an arch, a cool sun and moon carving in the cliff and a lot of fun hiking on red rock.

It’s fun to have a red rock playground like St George or Moab but so close to Utah Valley, we take the kids there and play.

There are often people rappelling down the cliffs too.

Diamond Fork Sun Carving

Up Diamond Fork Canyon (Off of Spanish Fork Canyon) you can go to Red Ledges and hike up into the red rock and see a sun and moon carved in the cliff.   I’ve read books that claim the sun carving is a clue from the Spaniards to their old gold mines, I have heard that the moon appears to be more recent and not authentic.

My friend Russ Eager told me that he’s seen a sun carving across the canyon from this one, I’d love to go see it.

Either way it’s a pretty cool thing to see and red ledges is a fun place to play.
