Year-round
Two thousand feet above a gooseneck bend in the Colorado River — the textbook image of the canyon country and the location Thelma & Louise drove off — Dead Horse Point sits on a mesa connected to Canyonlands' Island in the Sky district by a half-mile-wide land bridge. The Kayenta Campground (21 sites with 30-amp electric and water, 56-ft cap, the most generous in southeast Utah) and the Wingate Campground (31 sites, full hookups, similar cap) make this the rare in-park option that genuinely accommodates large rigs. Year-round operation; dump station near the visitor center. Reservations open 4 months ahead and book within hours for spring and fall. The dark-sky certification (International Dark Sky Park, Gold Tier) brings new-moon-weekend astrophotography crowds October through April.
