Saint Croix National Scenic Waterway - Sandrock Cliffs
Sandrock Cliffs is a scenic area along the St. Croix River and part of the Saint Croix National Scenic Waterway. The park's loop trail follows the river closely, then turns onto a ridge providing a variety of terrain and scenery. The highlight of the trail is the sandstone cliffs located in a river side channel. The story of this area began 600 million years ago when warm seas retreated from the region, laying down sediments which later became sandstone. The CD-Rom offers a review of the primitive campground, with photos of two recommended campsites. There is a printable map of the park's trail, with photos and information about the area.
