Tour of the Tilted Rocks is a scenic drive along the Cub Creek Road. The road begins at the Quarry Visitor Center north of Jensen, Utah, and ends at Josie's Cabin. Guidebooks are available for a small fee at either visitor center, or at a self-service post near the monument's entrance station.

Features along the route include petroglyph and pictograph panels, the Josie Bassett Morris cabin built in 1913, and fantastic views of geologic layers. A short spur road takes you to the Split Mountain Campground and Boat Launch where you can see the Green River leaving Split Mountain Canyon or watch river rafters arriving after a whitewater journey through the monument. Wildlife may occasionally be seen, including mule deer, bighorn sheep, pronghorn, prairie dogs, and many bird species.

Driving Conditions

The Cub Creek Road is typically open and accessible year-round. The first 8 miles (13 km) of the Cub Creek Road are paved. The last 2 miles (3 km) are unpaved, but maintained and accessible to most vehicles. The unpaved section is not recommended for low-clearance vehicles and may be impassable after severe rain or heavy snowfall.

Leashed pets are allowed in paved areas, such as campgrounds and parking lots. Leashed pets are also permitted along the River Trail and the short trail to the Swelter Shelter petroglyphs. All other trails are off-limits to pets.
