Review:
The Ruple Point Trail is a moderately rated, 7.7-mile out-and-back trail in the Colorado Section of the Dinosaur National Monument that features beautiful wild flowers and lovely views. Located near Vernal in Utah, the well-marked trail winds through Split Mountain leading to a rocky point on Ruple Ridge with spectacular views over the Green River. The Ruple Point Trail lies at an elevation of 7,000 feet and has minimal shade so can get very hot in the summer months. There is a large elk population in this area, as well as several deer, coyotes, sage hens, owls, and bear, which are best seen in the cooler mornings.
