Many other places forbid ATV’s. As a non-ATV’er, I’m pretty happy with that since I don’t want the noise, damage to trails, danger of hiking and ATV’s in the same place, and the fumes. However, Utah welcome’s ATV’s. The park we stayed has trails to neat areas like abandoned mines. Almost every RV had an ATV parked near it….we felt like such a minority. Here’s the view from our bedroom window with a big ATV trail right at the park. BTW, it was still a quiet spot to relax.
Utah also seems to have a lot of bike trails. We traveled several miles along a bike trail. Beautiful area with a creek with rapids in places.
This is called Big Rock Candy Mountain. Looks like an ice cream sundae! The story is that someone put a sign here as a joke after the “Big Rock Candy Mountain” song came out in 1928. The name stuck and locals came up with a way to provide a tourist stop with a resort (hotel, cabins, RV’s, and tent camping) at the base.
