This is absolutely breathtaking and a thrilling drive! Lots and lots of hiking here. If you do hike the Monument, check with the visitor's center for any closed trails and remember, it is really exposed in some areas the Summer so head out early and in many areas there is no cell service available. We recommend downloading alltrails maps or whatever app you love. Remember Sunscreen, sunshirts, hats and more water than you think you need!
