Dead Horse Point - By'Gone Days - Open Edition Print

Dead Horse Point State Park offers a breathtaking panorama of the lower canyon terrain carved by the meandering Colorado River. The viewpoint is situated at the tip of a slender peninsula located within the park, presenting a dramatic overlook of the rugged landscape. The name of this park is steeped in local lore, tracing back to a time when cowboys corralled wild mustangs onto the peninsula, enclosed by a temporary fence. They would select the horses they wished to tame and supposedly leave the rest to find their way back to the open mesa. However, the legend concludes with a somber note: on one occasion, the gate was not reopened, leading to the tragic demise of the forsaken mustangs due to lack of water. This poignant tale adds a layer of historical mystique to the already striking natural beauty of the area. 

Available as a Limited-edition Canvas Print or as a Mini Panel.
