Conclusion


Utah: the National Parks

Five of the world’s greatest treasures are found in southern Utah. These five jewels of the American West are the National Parks of Utah: Canyonlands, Arches, Bryce Canyon, Capitol Reef, and Zion. This is their story.

It’s a landscape like no other on the planet; a seemingly timeless portrait carved by forces of wind, water, and erosion. This is a place of contrasts. Hostile and forbidding, yet sublimely beautiful. Some of the most exquisite natural colors on earth are found here.
