Snow
Canyon is tucked away in the hills west of St George,
close to the transition between the Color Country of
southwest Utah and the rather more barren Basin and Range
landscape that persists all the way across Nevada. To
one side of the canyon lie the Red Mountains, while a
few miles away are the White Hills, and eroded sandstone
rocks of both colors make up the cliffs at either side
of the valley, while an even greater contrast is provided
by a large mass of black lava, which originated from
a cluster of volcanoes just beyond.
