Dead Horse Point with its stunning view across Canyon-landthe Natural History Mu seum at Vernal with its model dinosaurs, Bear Lake Marina with its minute ac commodations are samples of park operations of which any state would be proud. The accomplishments are the more remarkable since almost a million dollars has had to be programmed for land acquisition and development at Wasatch Mountain State Park, where due to population proximity, rising land values threatened to preclude this vital park. Important Role of Tourism During an election campaign in the wake of defense industry cutbacks, Utahns began to realize the important role tourism can play in the state's economic health. Statistics make but are somedry reading times instructive. Despite lack of a paved road, fully 52,756 visitors have been registered at Dead Horse Point 0 since 19G2. Approximately cars made a fifty-mil- e round trip, consuming perhaps 120,-00gallons of gasoline costing $42,000 on the junket. State taxes on gasoline alone amounted to approximately $4,800. Travel experts tell us each visitor spent half a vacation clay in the Moab area as a result of the availability of Dead Horse Point. Fully half those visitors spent $10 a day for s, up-to-t- 20,-00- 0 ments. And these visitors in no way reduced a natural resource the spectacular view at Dead Horse Point and its park facili ties remain tor next season s visitors, next decade's visitors and for their grandchildren! This single illustration of what the state park system can do to enhance Utah's economic is of special importance at a time when legislators must study the worthy budget state requests of agencies. Nationwide Program Set Up It is of vital importance too since the federal Bureau of Outdoor Recreation has estab lished a nationwide program in which, during the next twenty' five years, almost will become avilablo to federal, state, and local subdivisions on a "matching fund basis." Fully may be passed on to agencies with firm programs in hand tor 19b5, including seV' enteen states that have already passed bond issues of from $5- million to $150 miUion for recreation needs. Utah's State Park and Recreation Commission has drawn a realistic budget request of for the next biennium, including a request for $573,000 for water recreation. The request for the forthcoming biennium takes into account matching fund availability. It is hoped Utah citizens, increasingly aware of recreational needs and the economic potential inherent in this growing industry, will support legislative adherents of a sound, vigorous, forward-lookinstate park well-bein- g $200-millio- n Visits to Utah's state park areas totalled 2,017,789 over the past three years, the State Park and Recreation Commis sion has announced in its an nual report. Pioneer Monument State Park in Salt Lake City, better known as "This Is The Place Monument," continued as the top attraction, with 826,048 visitors counted, while the Nat ural History State Park at Ver nal registered 488,892 visits. The Vernal Museum, with its dinosaurs and geological displays, serves as an "entry-port- " for many tourists on busy U.S. Highway 40, park officials re ported. Museums, monuments and historic buildings such as the Brigham Young Winter Home at St George, Old State Capitol at Fillmore, Stagecoach Inn at Fairfield and the Jacob Hamb- lin Home at Santa Clara proved increasingly attractive to tour ists. However, the visitor report also shows a heavy use of "na tural" parklands plus a great gam in use of boating parks. Dead Horse Point Climbs A total of 52,756 visitors were registered at Dead Horse Point State Park, with use showing a steady climb" despite road prob lems. Twenty thousand, two hundred forty-fou- r persons visited Dead Horse Point in the first ten months of 1964 com pared to a total of 17,512 for all of 1963, while 1962 visits were set at 15,000. Eight developed water areas or boating parks supervised by the State Park Commission's Boating Division have attracted 423,652 fishermen and water sports enthusiasts. The ten month use in 1964 totaled 163,-17while in 1963 the water areas attracted 144,028 visitors and just 125,478 were reported in 1962. Boating Areas Added Boating areas include Bear Lake, at which a new marina was opened in 1964, as well as the state operation at Steinaker Reservoir, first unit of the new Central Utah project Another park area showing a significant visitor gain was the Dixie State Park near St George where total visits for 1962-6were 85,272. The overall total of park vis itors during included at 88,772 persons estimated unsuper eight undeveloped, vised state areas at which park rangers can make no accurate tally.

Such a "thoughtful investment in an expanded state park program can be of major importance to Utah," the Commission report said, adding that visitors attracted by outstanding parks will bring fresh dollars to many communities. Funds from the new Federal Bureau of Outdoor Recreation can be obtained on a matching basis to meet some of Utah's recreation growth needs, the report stressed. State Falling Behind .While Utah has such advantages as a crossroads location, lakes, mountains, canyons and climate to make it a major year-roun- d vacationland, the state will "fall further and further behind in the multi-stat- e competition for vacationist dollars unless fullest development of parklands is hastened," the (Commission statement declared. Expenditures from July 1, 1959 to June S3, 1965 for purchase of parklands will have totalled $1,633,748, with the major portion of the sum going for Wasatch Mountain State Park. Just $740,592 was spent for structures, parking areas, picnic fireplaces, boating facilities, sanitary facilities and other developments in five years, the Commision noted. Boating Funds Cited Of this sum $253,416 was spent for boating areas, since by law all funds accrued from boating fees, licenses and gasoline tax rebates must be spent solely on water recreation areas. Expenditures for park development other than boating areas Wasatch totalled $487,175. Total visits to all state parks for the 1962-196Is Major Project period were 2,017,789.
