Here in the Zion Area the temperature can get quite extreme during the summer months. That doesn't keep travelers away from Zion National Park. In the late of August and early September the temperatures are exceeding 100 degrees.  Duck Creek offers a great base camp for those of us who like to beat the heat while still seeing the sites we want to see. Only an hour away from Zion and Bryce, Duck Creek offers a perfect mountain setting for those looking to be close to the National Parks we are famous for. Not only this, Duck creek is unique features of its own to make it a destination worth traveling to. The main attractions are hiking, off-roading, great trout fishing in streams, and ponds. Don't have your own off road vehicle? No problem. Just a few minutes away from our campground you are able to rent and variety of off road vehicles to suit your needs. For fishing, we aren't too far from Panguitch Lake with offers first class trout fishing with boat rentals as well as great on-shore fishing.  Want to get out and use your legs instead? Brian head is less than an hour away where you will find a ski resort that caters to mountain bikers during the summer. On top of all of this you have world class views overlooking Zion and Cedar breaks near the campground as well. There is so much to do and little time to do it as summer and fall months will be closing soon so we encourage you to book now before the snow shuts us down for the winter season!

Antler Hunting

1/10/2020

2 Comments

 
January is perfect time of the year to get out in nature and look for deer antlers. Around Zion many big bucks are starching at trees and are getting ready to shed their antlers in preparation for the upcoming season. Most places North of Zion are a perfect place to start looking. Coral Pink Sand Dunes is a perfect area to bring the 4x4 vehicles, bring the family and start looking! There is so much area to cover there and it is covered with big deer just north of Zion and right next to the ​Paunsaugunt, where the really big dear live! It's cold and the weather is volatile so when you come out here be prepared for all types of weather!

Why is Southern Utah a great place to visit?

12/6/2019

7 Comments

 
There are many great destinations that bring visitors to Southern Utah. We have a variety of National and State Parks close to each other, so visiting multiple destinations is very easy to do. It is a dynamic environment, the landscape is ever-changing, making it an exciting and unique place to visit, no two places will look the same (or even similar)! The beautiful weather from March to October makes it easy to visit most of these locations. Whether you are a casual nature goer or an outdoor enthusiast, Southern Utah can cater to your adventure.

National Parks

     Southern Utah destinations include 3 National parks: Zion, Bryce Canyon, and Capitol Reef national parks. The National Park reported 4 million at Zion, Bryce Canyon had 2.5 million, while Capitol Reef had 1.15 million. Utah is growing at an extremely fast pace, If possible, plan your visit during the middle of the week to avoid the crowds. Each of these parks has a variety of trails throughout them at different levels of difficulty. These include breathtaking views that can only be seen within these parks and will be sure to give you a memorable experience. Both Zion and Bryce Canyon are in the top 10 National parks to visit in the United States, for good reason. Both offer iconic trails and terrain that challenge even the most adept traveler.

Other National Parks, Monuments, and Forests

    Utah is mostly public land, leaving a lot of its untouched beauty. Besides the 3 big national parks, there are plenty of smaller parks and monuments that are worth visiting. Among those are Kolob Canyon, which is part of Zion but more secluded, Cedar Breaks Monument,  Dixie National Forest, Grand Staircase-Escalante monument, Capitol Reef and Arches National Park. Per the National Park Service Arches has the highest visitors at about 1.5 million per year. These parks offer a great alternative to the parks when the parks are busy, or you want to travel from the beaten path. 

State Parks

    South-Western Utah has 5 state parks neighboring the Zion National park area. There are 3 areas of swimming between Gunlock, Quail Creek, and Sand Hollow that is west of Zion. Sand Hollow is the most popular, featuring pink sand dunes near the reservoir for fishing in the morning and off-roading after noon. Quail is 10 minutes from Sand Hollow and offers great bass and trout fishing all year round. All of these lakes are a perfect place to bring your family and  camping toys. Snow Canyon offers another area for walking trails at lower level of difficulty and the Coral Pink Sand Dunes, south-east to Zion, is known for off-road vehicle trails. Downtown Saint George is a perfect place to stay, it is historic, quaint, clean, and full of small and friendly businesses that will give you a different taste of the culture in this beautiful growing town. All of these locations are about an hour or less from St. George Utah, these places offer something else to do while visiting Zion National. 


Conclusion
    
    Southern Utah has many places to visit with different trails at various skill levels. Zion National park is a highly ranked park that also has things that can be done during your visit. Which has probably lead to the increase of yearly visits to the park. It is worth seeing the different parks here and enjoy what nature has given to everyone to enjoy.

Beating the Crowds this Labor Day

8/12/2019

PictureSouthern Zion
Southern Utah is becoming an exceedingly popular destination for casual travelers and enthusiasts alike. We have seen massive growth in the recreational areas near us and we want to share some tips for you to beat the crowds this Labor Day or any other crowded weekend. Zion National Park and Springdale become excessively busy on holiday weekends. You can expect large crowds showing up early, making lines and parking a headache. If you are looking to skip the lines and cool down in the process, Southern Zion is a great alternative. Turning left from SR-9 in Virgin onto Kolob Terrace Rd. will put you on a path towards Kolob Reservoir. If you take this road to the reservoir, you climb a couple thousand feet in elevation bringing you to much cooler temperatures, which can be a huge relief during the summer. Along this route you will find stunning sites, significantly less traffic, hiking trails, and cooler weather making it a perfect alternative to the main part of the park.
