As one man said after hours and hours traveling through southern Utah... "So this is Utah?" Piles of sand, scrawny bushes that look like they'll get blown away before the day is out, pieces of trash so old that they may be antiques by now. Why on earth would anyone actually desire to colonize this area? Miles and miles of things out there today do look much as they did before 1848. There aren't many places on earth that will test your survival skills more than launching across the Utah desert on foot without a map or tools. Indeed, survival schools thrive here. But still, there is a whole lot more to Utah than sage and sand. Each of the links below will lead you to more links and more sites that reveal the beauty and grandeur of Utah. |
Salt Lake City: Music, nightlife, activities, attractions, history.

The Monsters of Moab: Earth has a vault of time vast beyond our human comprehension. No geologic feature is permanent. The mountains are constantly falling. New islands are constantly rising. Even the poles seem to shift now and then. Three hundred million years of unhurried incremental changes culminated in exposing the Arches as we know them today. The Little Sahara Recreation Area, 124 SQUARE MILES of four wheeling paradise. Sure, a lot of it is nothing but sand and sage brush -- but there are miles of trails all through that. Plus, the endless dunes do go on -- and on, for miles. Cache Valley: People travel to northern Utah to get away from the rest of the world. It is a place to regroup and gather your thoughts as you sit by a beautiful canyon lake or river. Fur trappers once roamed this area, and planned two of the largest rendezvous here. Cascade Springs is a must see for those heading over American Fork canyon on the Alpine Scenic Loop. There is a $3.00 dollar use fee to access the canyon. Cedar City: This small college community is ideally located to serve as the gateway city to Utah’s national park country. White Rim Ride in Canyonland National Park |

Utah Valley Trails:
Communities in Utah Valley have constructed and
are
continuing to expand a system of non-motorized trails and pathways.
These trails provide recreational opportunities and alternatives to automobile
travel, preserve open space, and maintain access to public lands. Many trails,

Parkway, are paved, multi-use paths suitable for walkers,
joggers, roller-bladers
and bicyclists.
