Belly of the Dragon is a popular photospot near Kanab, Utah, that features an old drainage tunnel under Hwy 89 that looks like an ominous passageway. You can scramble down into the tunnel entrance, explore hike through the tunnel to a sandy wash on the other side.

If I'm being honest, I think the Belly of the Dragon is a bit overrated. It certainly makes for some cool photos, but it's riddled with graffiti and at the end of the day, it's just a drainage tunnel under a highway. It wouldn't be my top thing to do, but if you're passing by it makes for a quick stop.
