| We visited on a weekend during spring break. The parking lot was nearly full. The nearby boondock/dispersed camping was packed with people, but we managed to find a decent spot. My daughter, wife, and I had a lot of fun hiking around and enjoying the scenery. | ||

| Amazing area just to play around in. All the goblins are begged to be climbed on. We played hide and go seek under a full moon-that was fun! | ||

| ncst | Funny Park ![]() Date Climbed: Oct 12, 2009 | |
| Definitely one of the funniest parks I've been too. Saw some people on one of the white peaks in the back, but couldn't find the way to get up there, what a labyrinth! Anyways a great place! | ||

| mtybumpo | Sweet Place! ![]() | |
| I was little when I was there but I remember how cool it was. I loved all the weird rock formations and I have pictures of me playing around on them. | ||

| edevart | Seen some weird things in them hills ![]() | |
| Many times as a kid and teenager. Once came across a "nude ninja"--some guy standing on a hoodoo doing tai chi or practicing kung fu. Also once found a clay mask that somebody had made and then adherred to the sandstone in a small grotto in the depths of the valley. There are many caves and crevices to explore--so much fun for kids. | ||

| What a crazy place to just roam around and enjoy the natural mazes. In addition to the wild formations, I especially enjoyed the remoteness of the park (which I hope has not changed) and the Pronghorns sprinting along with our vehicles on the drive in. | ||

| Cool Place, and lots of good canyoneering sites nearby! Actually I was first here in the early '70's, then most recently last spring! | ||

| mtnhiker13 | what a querky little place! ![]() | |
| Wonderful stop for a few hours to crawl around the various bizzare formations in this park. Kids would have a great time here. Go in the spring before it gets too hot! | ||
