Dead Horse Point State Park, Utah
We were on our way to Moab, Utah from Grand Junction Colorado and arrived much earlier than anticipated. I remember visiting Dead Horse Point State Park 13 years ago and felt it would be a nice little side trip to keep us busy until our Hotel check-in time! We pulled out the atlas and headed out for some adventure.
The park has changed since my last visit but for the better I assure you. The park fee is now $5 to get in but the experience is well worth the money. They have this really nice visitor center that is stocked with toys, outdoors books and other keepsakes to remember your visit. The center has an interpretive guide and the rangers are more than helpful with the site map and the rim hike. I was extremely pleased with the quality of this State Park and its visitor center. Very clean and well maintained. Coming from Florida’s Gold Medal winning State Parks, I would say the Utah is ready to give them a run for their money and then some! (more…)
