Navajo Twins in Bluff, UtahHere’s a perspective of how tall the Twin rocks are compared to the restaurant belowSan Juan River and the Bluffs along Comb Wash from the AirThe Sandstone formations above Bluff are around 300 feet high.
Bluff Utah lies in the shadow of the Twin Rocks, two massive sandstone towers or turrets. It’s a very small town (population about 320) but rich in pioneer history. The elevation is 4320’ so it was suitable for farming for the early settlers. At first glance, Bluff appears to be small and uninteresting little town. If you take the time to drive through the 2 main historic streets you will see many restored stone houses from the 1880’s. Antique wagons and tools can be seen adorning some of these very old but nicely restored homes.
We strolled up to the Cow Canyon Trading Post and in the window were rows and rows of old typewriters. Too bad they weren’t open, but honestly I don’t think the doors have been open for many years.
