GOOSENECKS STATE PARK

GOOSENECKS STATE PARK is a state park in the U.S. state of Utah, overlooking a deep meander of the San Juan River.  Millions of years ago, the Monument Upward forced the river to carve incised meanders over 1,000 feet (300 m) deep as the surrounding landscape slowly rose in elevation. Eroded by water, wind, frost, and gravity, this is a classic location for observing incised meanders.
