I also rode on the annual Goblin Valley State Park Motorcycle Ride (the ride is also open to ATVs and takes you through the beautiful San Rafael Swell area). We have visited three of Utahs five National Parks, most of the national forests and almost all of the state parks. We still look forward to exploring new places such as the goblins at Goblin Valley State Park, where we plan to play in the valley by moonlight.

However, not until I was a mother and started working for the Utah Division of Parks and Recreation did I realize how many interesting places are in our own state. I decided that my children would learn about the state they live in by actually visiting as much of Utah as possible. Most people are familiar with such state parks as the Great Salt Lake, Saltair Beach, Willard Bay State Park, and Utah Lake State Park, but how many know there is a mountain man rendezvous held every year near Easter at Fort Buenaventura State Park in Ogden? How many are familiar with the Halloween-tim- e pumpkin carving contest, the Christmas-tim- e candlelight tour, and the winter crosscountry ski trial at Pioneer Trail State Park in Salt Lake City? The Utah Field House of Natural History State Park in Vernal, commonly known as the dinosaur gardens, string almost 75,000 Christmas lights in the garden, beginning the day after Thanksgiving. My children have enjoyed all the ly . trips, but they were especially enthralled by one of our springtime trips to southern Utah. We stopped in Cedar City and went through the Iron Mission State Park Museum, featuring old carriages and many remnants from Cdear Citys mining days. Our next stop was Zions National Park, and then on to Snow Canyon State Park, just outside of St. George, where we stayed the night. Among gently sloping cliffs, we discovered rain pools where water had been trapped and made great wading pools. At night, as we lay on the grass, we counted stars so bright you knew they were just barely beyond your reach. On one long weekend trip, we headed south again to tour four parks: Bryce Canyon National Park, where the oclors blend into one beautiful lpastel canyon; Kodachrome Basin State Park, another of our favorite scenic, hiking, and camping parks; Anasazi Indian Village State Park; and Escalante Petrified Forest State Park, where you can take a short scenic hike to see the petrified wood, go fishing, water skiing, and camping all at the same time. Although we dont own vehicles, I have been lucky enough to Photos are by Magna postman David Minix of Southern Utah trip.
