Ancient volcanic activity has shaped the surrounding area's rocky terrain into what it is today. Granite boulders are mixed into the patches of Pinyon and Juniper all throughout the campground. Many sites throughout the campground offer views of the Hurricane Cliffs range that rise above Cedar City.
