Croton Road

Trail Overview

Croton Road is a rarely used gravel road that stretches twenty-five miles through the Grand Staircase Escalante. It connects Left Hand Collett to the Sit Down Bench and Little Valley roads along the Croton Bench above Lake Powell. Its biggest draw is those seeking evidence of the underground burning coal fires in the nearby Burning Hills. This road is rocky and is not regularly maintained. In wet weather, it would be easy to get stuck. This is a very remote area.

Difficulty

bumpy and rocky but not difficult.
