Zion National Park  Only 20 minutes from Hurricane! Protected within Zion National Park's 229 square miles (593.1 km) is a spectacular cliff-and-canyon landscape and wilderness full of the unexpected including the world's largest arch - "Kolob Arch" - with a span that measures 310 feet (94.5 m). more...
Lake Powell  Visitors to Lake Powell at Glen Canyon National Park will see a lake teeming with activity as recreation enthusiasts explore the secrets of Powell by houseboat, jet boat, personal watercraft or even diving. Even with thousands of people enjoying the bounty of recreational opportunities, Lake Powell never seems crowded. There is always a deserted sandy cove or hidden canyon just around the corner. A 50-mile run from Wahweap will take you to Rainbow Bridge, a stone arch spanning 275 feet and rising more than 290 feet. La Gorce Arch is another natural rock formation 100 feet wide and 75 feet high located in the Escalante Arm at Davis Gulch. Other surprises await the patient explorer, including ancient Native American petroglyphs and ruins.more...

Paiutes explained the colorful hoodoos as "Legend People" who were turned to stone by Coyote. more...
