430 Gallery on Mount Carmel Highway, Zion National Park, Southern
Utah
THE MOUNT CARMEL HIGHWAY was built at a cost of over $2,000,000.00.
By tunneling through the mountain 88 miles of travel were saved between
Bryce and Zion National Parks. The tunnel is over a mile long, 22
feet wide and 16 feet high just inside the face of the cliff. At
a few points the tunnel approaches close enough to the surface of the cliff
for galleries to be cut through affording gorgeous views of the east and
west canyon walls.
